Why is literacy important?  Learners need literacy in order to engage with the written word in everyday life… Being able to read and write means being able to keep up with current events, communicate effectively, and understand the issues that are shaping our world.

“The stories we read together act as a bridge when we can’t seem to findanother way to connect. They are our currency, our language, our familyculture. The words and stories we share become a part of our family identity.”(p38-39, The Read-Aloud Family)
