Quote
Reading piggybacks on the language system that children already have. This means that it is easier for an American baby to learn to read English than Romanian. It also means that a child who has strong language abilities will have a real advantage when it comes to reading. Why? Because when you translate the written words, you form coherent ideas that take you far beyond the pages of the book.
