„Especially the more frequent reading to the child in families with high-educated parents turned out to account for SES-related differences (Anm.: SES = socioeconomic status) in children’s language and social skills. Through shared picture book reading, children do not only learn words and improve their language skills; they additionally learn how characters in storybooks behave and how they solve social problems; these characters may serve as models for prosocial behaviour and patterns of interaction.“
