How to Help Now, what can you do to help? If you live in town you can make sure that your child is a member of the children's section of the public library. This usually costs a small fee, but borrowing is free. Standard three or even earlier is about the right time for this. Make sure that the children borrow regularly and return their books on time. In the country, enquire from the school about library services. The National Library Service (God bless them) supply all the schools with an issue of books each year. Some schools allow the children to take these home (please see that they are returned, the school has to pay for lost books), but a book from the school library once every couple of weeks is really not enough for a child in Standard Four or higher. Most children in my class read three or more books in a week! Have a look at the books your children bring home; you will probably find that you can get some fun out of them too.
