“Child development is a foundation for community development and economic development, as capable children become the foundation of a prosperous and sustainable society.” -Dr. Dipesh Navsaria, ROAR

America’s Literacy Crisis
One out of five households in the U.S. does not have access to books.
75% of students who are poor readers in 3rd grade remain poor readers in high school.
Two-thirds of America’s children living in poverty have no books at home, and the number of families living in poverty is on the rise.

“Reading is key to a child’s cognitive, emotional and social health. Giving a book to a child is more important than giving DVDs, flash cards and educational games. The first 3 years of life, the brain is wired in ways it will never be wired again. Reading at the earliest ages is critical to brain development.”
- Dr. Dipesh Navsaria, Pediatrician and Reach Out and Read
Reading is CRITICAL
![Page 22: Family and Community Engagement Webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54b5c3094a79596e0a8b4913/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Why is Reading Critical?

“A child growing up with several books in their environment completes an average of up to three years more schooling than a child who has no access to books in their environment.”
– Evans, Kelley, Sikora & Treiman, 2010

“Literacy, the ability to read, write and understand, is the birthright of every child in the world, as well as the pathway to succeed in school and to realize a complete life.”
- Scholastic’s Reading Bill of Rights

“Stories … help children cope with the worries and fears precipitated by illness,
medical procedures, and hospitalizations.” -Southern Medical Journal, vol 77, no 3

• Nationwide Children’s Hospital believes it takes more than medicine to have a healthy child.
• Hospitals can be frightening and lonely experiences. Books provide comfort, security, imagination and levity during a stressful time in a child’s life.
• Parents and families can find relationships altered when they have a child in the hospital. Books bring people together.
The Issue
![Page 50: Family and Community Engagement Webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54b5c3094a79596e0a8b4913/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
• Hospital-bound children need as much control of their activities as possible and opportunities to make choices.
• Some children have weakened immune systems due to chemotherapy and other treatments.
• Books that are borrowed often cause problems as they carry germs.
• Reading helps children transition from the hospital to the home and back into the classroom.
The Issue
![Page 51: Family and Community Engagement Webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54b5c3094a79596e0a8b4913/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• Sick children having a sense of ownership of their books allows them to feel safe and secure and a sense of self.
• Being able to use one’s imagination, taken to a different place, away from health problems when being bound to a hospital room is a great health benefit.
• Social-emotional development is the foundation for cognitive development. When a child is emotionally well and feeling secure, brain development continues. Reading is a conduit to this.
The Benefit
![Page 52: Family and Community Engagement Webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54b5c3094a79596e0a8b4913/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
• Language skills continue to develop• Adults can bond with children over books.• Children in hospitals will be less likely to
fall behind in schools, suffering educationally, by reading, sharing and owning books.
• Reading – and being read to – can make a huge difference to a child’s health. Books divert a child’s attention away from their pain. They entertain children, reduce stress and provide comfort and reassurance.
The Benefit
![Page 53: Family and Community Engagement Webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051818/54b5c3094a79596e0a8b4913/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
