You'd be surprised how often reading to children has fallen out of favor with educators. When my dad was still in elementary school, the teachers all told my great aunt to stop reading to him. They were following the flashcard system lampooned in
To Kill A Mockingbird. She ignored it, and dad still loves reading.
