Handbook on potential benefits of reading for pleasure to children.

      Аннотация: Reading is a cornerstone for success not just in schools but throughout life. Through reading, we acquire new ideas and knowledge, obtain needed information, relax the minds, and improve our command of language and vocabulary. It also serves as a good companion and provides pleasure, expand our horizons and enrich our lives. The significance of reading cannot be underestimated since it could be considered as a window to the outside world and a precondition for success in life. One established way of building a literate nation and improving the overall reading skills is through encouraging reading for pleasure habits. The handbook, therefore, acting as a guide, is intended at assisting teachers, librarians and information professionals, reading practitioners and experts in the educational sector to promote the culture of reading among children.
