    Why raising readers Has Selected This Book
    The book I LIKE IT WHEN demonstrates all of the selection committee's favorite activities and interactions between a caregiver and a child. The book shows many different ways to build up an attachment between you and your young reader, whether it is day-to-day things like eating, sleeping or reading or special things like dancing to music.
    Questions
    When reading this book, it might be nice to ask your young reader things like, "Do you like it when we eat new things?" Or, "Do you like it when we read stories?" The book also gives you the opportunity to tell your reader what you like.

    When you are reading this book, you can also do some of the things depicted on the page. You can hold your young reader's hand, play peek-a-boo, dance a little in your chair, and, of course, hug.
