      Algunos padres no valoran el comportamiento lector de sus hijos, considerándolo "sin provecho o utilidad". Sin embargo, leer es crucial para el desarrollo intelectual, emocional y artístico de los niños. Las ventajas de la lectura son numerosas: fomenta la adquisición de nuevos conceptos, la imaginación, y enriquece el vocabulario y el lenguaje. Además, contribuye al desarrollo de la memoria, el pensamiento crítico, la capacidad de abstracción, la escucha, la formación en valores y la personalidad. Para que la lectura tenga estos efectos positivos, no es suficiente con el trabajo de los docentes en las escuelas; la implicación de los padres es fundamental. Este cuento nos ayudará a promover la lectura en la familia.
