Teaching Your Child To Read: A Step-by-Step Guide to Helping Your Preschooler Learn and Develop Simple Reading Skills is a non-fiction book by Jayne Beacon. All the crucial tips parents or those taking care of children need to know to have a seamless teaching experience are contained in this masterpiece.

The book discussed various concepts to help parents raise knowledgeable children. Some of them are the little things that can be done to aid in a child's language development and reading ability, and how their vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking skills can be developed. The benefits of reading and conversing with children were extolled. The usefulness includes the bonding of the child with the parents, improving their vocabulary and literacy skills, and developing their language skills. These are just a few examples of their importance. The concept of storytelling was brought to light, as well as how it helps build a child's reading and writing skills. It also improves a child's language and literacy skills. These are some of the topics discussed, and I'll advise you to pick up a copy of this book to know all that was written about.

The chapter that was solely a reading glossary was excellent. With these, readers would be acquainted with some words that it wouldn't hurt for them to be familiar with, as knowing the words and their meanings will make them not feel out of place at parent-teacher conferences. Games were listed at the end of each chapter that parents can utilize and try out with their children to nurture their literacy development.

It's delightful to discover that the book cover went hand-in-hand with the book title, as they complimented each other. The book cover is also artistically done, and readers are compelled to get a copy of the book because of it. When I flipped through the first page, I discovered that the author embedded extra resource material to further aid readers; this adequately shows her thoughtfulness. I was pleased by the few diagrams incorporated into the narrative. They made the concepts being discussed come to light and were also effortless to comprehend. It was amazing to see that the author used her children as case studies to further drive home her points.

I didn't encounter any negatives. At the end of the book, the author included an extra resource that would be helpful to readers. This shows she had the reader's best interests at heart. I didn't encounter any errors, which indicates the book was flawlessly edited, and there was no profanity either. For the reasons mentioned above, I'm glad to rate this book five out of five stars.

I recommend this book especially to parents or to people taking care of children. This book can serve as a guide to them on how to help their wards in their mental, social, and behavioral development, and even in more areas. Teachers would also find this book beneficial, as they can discover practical ways to teach their pupils or students.

This is such an important topic, often parents don't know where to start when it comes to teaching their child to read and as a teacher myself, I know how difficult this can be.
