In this episode of 'So, You Want to Publish a Book?' podcast, host Sean explores the profound impact of early reading on a child's overall cognitive growth and language development. Highlighting the science-backed advantages of reading aloud to children, Sean emphasizes not only the boost in vocabulary and learning skills that children receive, but also the unique bonding experience it offers to parents. He also suggests creative ways to make reading sessions engaging, such as using expressive faces and imaginative voices, involving children in picture descriptions, and for bilingual families, sharing books in both languages. Sharing his belief that these reading sessions can lay a strong foundation for children's futures, Sean encourages listeners to embrace and enjoy the experience, making it a highlight of both their child's and their own day.
