Children draw great comfort from familiar objects, teddy bears, blankets, and other stuffed toys. No one comments on that, shames her about it, or acts as though she is doing anything strange. Yet she carries her teddy bear, Corduroy, with her openly. Since the story is well summarized here at the, I would like to focus on why the story is an important one to share.įirst, Lisa is shown as being not such a young child.
A Pocket for Corduroy was one of her picks. To help other parents apply this advice, as a parent of four I consulted an expert, our youngest child, and asked her to share with me her favorite books that were read to her as a young child. Spending time together watching television fails as a substitute. Intellectual performance will expand as well. With better parent-child bonding from reading, you child will also be more emotionally secure and able to relate better to others.
