As reading to children plays an important role in language development, primary 
caregivers (parents and teachers) are often encouraged to read to their children from a very young 
age. This article discusses main arguments for early (extensive) reading and its benefits for children. 
Keywords:
Early reading; reading development; early childhood; long term; reading; language; 
extended reading.
We can be transported from one world to another by reading and immerse ourselves in the lives of 
fictional characters. Moreover, we learn about a world that is very different from our own by turning 
the pages of a novel. Besides reading helps pick up new words and phrases, feel a variety of emotions, 
and gain new skills and knowledge.
Reading has a wide range of effects on child development due to its learning ability, as shown by 
several studies. As a result, teachers and parents are in a unique position to ensure that reading is an 
important part of children’s everyday lives. 
It is impossible to overestimate the value of reading to children. Reading for fun can help a 
child’s education, social and cognitive growth, as well as their overall health and mental health.
The concept of early reading
Early reading may be characterized in a variety of ways, including reading before a child is able 
to learn to read, before a child enters school, before a child is considered adequately established in 
non-academic areas first, or before the child’s transition into middle childhood.
In arguments of when to teach reading, educationalists prefer to concentrate on capability, em-
phasizing that children should learn to read even when they are very young (Ehri, Nunes, Stahl, & 
Willows, 2001a). Instead, I believe it is more important to determine whether teaching children to 
read at a certain age is optimal, in the sense that the changes in child development that result from 
having received reading instruction and learned reading skills must be taken into account.
So far, numerous pieces of research conducted figure out the profound benefits of extended read
-
ing for a child’s development. Research works detail the effects of extensive reading on later literacy 
skills encouraging children to engage with the world around them. Moreover, conducted investiga-
tions state how reading can be a ‘stable source of information’ throughout a child’s life. This consis-
tency helps them to access text on a regular basis, which is particularly helpful for children growing 
up in difficult situations.
Reviewing such researches, I found out several benefits of extensive reading for children. They 
are as follows:
• 
Children enlarge their vocabulary;
• 
Academically, children do well.
• 
They develop their imagination;
• 
Their ability to be creative grows;
• 
They grow in empathy.
• 
They learn more about their surroundings.
• 
Their levels of concentration increase.
• 
The relationship between the parent and the child improves.
• 
Their cognitive growth is encouraged.
• 
Their ability to communicate and socialize improves.
So, what we are expected to do in order to achieve all these benefits for kids. Motivating children 
to foster a love of books and reading extensively at an early age is an excellent way to set them up

for their future. Getting our children to want to learn, on the other hand, is a much more challenging. 
First, we have to make a cozy, peaceful, and special reading room for children will help them fall in 
love with the world of literature.
How can a child tell if he or she has improved as a reader? When you talk to kids about reading, 
you’ll discover that they each have their own set of reading milestones, such as the first time they read 
a novel, the first time they read a chapter book, and the first time they read a longer book like Harry 
Potter, Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, Naughty Boy, (Shum bola) or Riding a Yellow Giant (Sariq 
devni minib).
The second important thing what we can do for young extensive readers is to infuse chapter book 
reading (fiction and non-fiction books) as part of the daily routine for reading curriculums. When chil
-
dren progress from beginning to intermediate readers, chapter books become the preferred reading 
content. Shorter picture books have a different text demand than chapter books. When reading chap-
ter books, readers must be able to keep their thoughts going for days or weeks at a time, summarizing 
the text as they go. They have to recall what happened in the previous chapter every time they pick 
up the book to read, and they often find themselves re-reading to improve comprehension. The reader 
must revise their thought process as new material is brought to light in a chapter book. Middle-grade 
readers will enjoy this challenge.
Thus, if children have not been instructed in how to read extensive, more complex chapter books, 
we can hardly expect them to enter the world of chapter book reading with competence and confi
-
dence.
To sum up the need for extensive reading to enhance language learning, develop imagination, 
thinking and encourage cognitive growth is a final point that is often made.
