My name is Mary. I’m a new book keeper. I’ve
just talked to Sarah, Luna and Rosa about joining them. How can you see, I have
been accepted. 

I’m American, Brazilian’s daughter, &nbsp;and I moved to Brazil last week. I met the
girls, and of course, we talked about books and they showed me the blog. The next
month I will write, in Portuguese, about the chosen book. This month I did
something different. I wrote about the importance to read to little children (2
to 5 years) and recommend some children’s book.





When I was a kid, my mom used to read and tell
stories to me. A few days ago I realized that and how it should be the reason that
now, in her words, I became compulsive reader. So, I decided to do a research and try
to discovery how this could have changed my life.

I’ve found out some interesting things like:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->When
the parents read to their children, they create a deeper relation, because it’s
is a very intimate moment and gives pleasure for all.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->Read
to babies will help them to develop the basic speech skills, because it reinforces
the sounds of the language.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->It
increases the kid’s aptitude for learning in general, a various studies shows
that students who are exposed to reading before the preschool are more likely
to do well in formal education, even in math!

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->Did
you remember when you learn that you should read a text from the left to the
right? No? That is because you learned it when you were a kid and saw your parents
reading for you.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->The
children will develop better communication skills, because they will realize how
the book’s characters talk and how the narrator tells the stories, so they will
learn how to tell their own stories.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<!--[endif]-->It
also develops the logical and abstract thinking skills, because they will learn
to identify real world objects in the drawings and they will be in contact with
themes like friendship and figure out its meaning.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

For me the most important thing is: &nbsp;that your kids will learn that reading books
is a way to have fun, to know different places and cultures and make friends. 

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Some books my mom used to read
to me when I was a kid and others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Dia e
Noite - Eliardo França.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;O jogo
e a bola – Mary e Eliardo França.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Marcelo, marmelo, martelo, de Ruth Rocha.&nbsp;

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; O bichinho da maça, Ziraldo.&nbsp;&nbsp;
