„Parents and teachers and others not only need to provide children with books, but also to take the time to read to children and engage them in storytelling. […] In addition to being read to, children need literacy role models. Families where reading is valued as a pleasurable activity, where there is active conversation about books, provide a breeding ground for interest in reading. The involvement of parents in reading activities of their 15-yearold children has a known positive effect on reading performance of 15-year-olds.“
