    I love books and wherever I go, I have a book or two with me.
    I write books for children to read and have read to them by adults.
    I enjoy seeing children engaging with books, exploring them and raising questions about the story and the messages behind the illustrations. Parents, grandparents, teachers, care-givers and anyone who reads to a child is nurturing him/her with a love for reading and for writing.
    It is a gift that will enrich them all their lives.

    10 Reasons to Read to a Child
    1. When you hold them and give them this attention, they know you love them.
    2. Reading to them will encourage them to become readers and empower them for life-long learning.
    3. Children’s books today are so good that they are fun even for adults.
    4. Children’s book illustrations are up there with the best.
    5. Reading well illustrated books also gives children a lifelong feeling for good art and a good foundation in visual literacy.
    6. Until children learn to read themselves, they will think you are magic.
    7. Every teacher and librarian they ever encounter will thank you.
    8. Reading is nostalgic.
    9. For a short space of time, they will stay clean and quiet.
    10. And then may let you read in peace.
