2. Welcome to the I Am A Leader Reader Series. This series is designed to enhance your child's
reading ability, critical thinking skills, and leadership qualities.
As they learn to read they will become more confident in their reading comprehension. As
they become more confident readers ask them the critical thinking questions at the back of
the book.
The best way to teach your child to read is by consistently reading to them for short periods
of time. As a result this book was designed to be used over a span of five days for 15
minutes.
