Description
Why do images from beloved childhood picture books linger in our minds? How do picture books shape our lives early on and even into adulthood? In this book Ellen Handler Spitz explores the profound impact of reading to children -- on the reader as well as the listener. She discusses well-known picture books and how they transmit psychological wisdom, convey moral lessons, shape tastes, and build a special bond between the child and the adult reader.
