他們理解了多少，記住了多少，我不得而知。
只不過，你再拿出那本書，指著那個動物問，這是什麽。
大家一臉茫然，指鹿為馬，指羊為魚也不罕見。
於是你便發現原來這些故事書，是要每天讀，每天讀，每天讀的。
（家長竟然不會抓狂……好厲害~）
我不記得小時候有沒有人讀過故事書給我聽了。
唯一我有記憶的，都是放暑假，自己躺在地上看書……
翻一頁，轉個身……
要麼是我記事晚，要麼是我童年很缺失關愛。
但有時也會在舊居的一堆舊書中發現大大的，彩色的兒童讀物……
應該是小時候留下的，因為上面的很多人的臉上，都被我加了其他的裝飾物。
竟然沒有因為多次搬家而扔掉，說明我曾很堅持地要保留他們。
記憶和事實出現不相符合的狀況，也不能什麽都賴在父母身上吧。
好啦好啦，我的近視，是自作孽造成的啦。
兜了半天，其實是要奉勸各位家長，爲了避免日後發生類似的無畏爭執。
千萬，千萬，千萬，留下證據。
哪怕這意味著你要多準備5個盒子用來裝這些沒用的書籍。
孩子們會感激的，相信我。

u know, whenever i see other blogger's posts about reading stories to their young children. i feel a bit weird. sound so middle-class & westernised to me. i can hardly imagine my primary-school-level parents reading stories to me when i was young. They seldom 傾計 with us (in an affectionate way, as other parents do) , let alone reading stories , ha!
like u (and perhaps many other kids), i grew up reading alone & myself.
i think it's not the book-reading, but the parental invovlement that counts.
"i think it's not the book-reading, but the parental invovlement that counts " --> exactly. that's why i find the whole idea so alien , an almost untouchable . i can imagine parents who KNOW how to read stories to their children are those open-minded, liberal, affectionate, supportive, and know how to make themselves lifelong friends of their children..
story book reading is just one of the ways to get involved. there are certainly other (better or not) means too.
and of course, not all active parents would get the desired results. every child is his own individual. who knows what they will turn into in the future, right?
