The right kind of book at the right time is one of the most important educational re- sources we can provide for our children. It takes a great variety ot books to make available “the right book the right time!” The ultimate goal for each child is of course largely determined by himself, but it is surely our obliga- tion as parents and cifizens to vide enough enriched esperienc for each child to enable him to ¢ tinguish and choose according his aptitudes and capacities. True, teachers can do much t teach a child to read, provide | tice in reading, and enrich the ing program by using library sources. However, it is only thic actual first-hand experience with - variety of the “right books at the right time” that the child himsell can develop an insatiable desire y more knowledge or ¥ happiness in the wc t literature.
