When I think of Child Development


v  “Children's reading and children's thinking are the rock-bottom base upon which this country will rise. Or not rise. In these days of tension and confusion, writers are beginning to realize that books for children have a greater potential for good or evil than any other form of literature on earth.” Dr. Seuss

v  You're off to Great Places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting, So... get on your way!”  Dr. Seuss

 v  “Remember me and smile, for it's better to forget than to remember me and cry.” Dr. Seuss

Make it a rule never to give a child a book you would not read yourself.”
George Bernard Shaw
You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”
Madeleine L'Engle

  1. Reading the quotes you picked from Dr. Seuss makes me realize how much of an influence he was on the lives of children and families by writing such encouraging messages in his books. Thank you for all your support over the last 8 weeks Sophia! I wish you all the best for the rest of your studies.
