The concept is simple. The rewards are priceless. Read a book (any book) to your newborn, infant, and/or toddler. The goal is to have read 1,000 books (yes you can repeat books) before your little one starts Kindergarten. Does it sound hard? Not really if you think about it!
If you read just 1 book a night, you will have read 365 books in a year. That is 730 books in two years, and 1,095 books in three years.
