Reading Tip #12: Find or pick books about relatable topics for your kids; i.e. we were going to the beach this summer, so we checked out several books about going to the beach and animal life found at the beach.  (Scaredy Squirrel Goes to the Beach, National Geographic: Tidal Pools,  Beach Day)

Reading Tip #9: Teach your child how to read the pictures and turn the pages at the appropriate time. (Reading the pictures helps pre-readers make sense of what's happening in the story; it can even lead them to make predictions about what will happen next!)
