THE BOOK AND ITS ROLE IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

We need to instill in a child an interest and love for books from an early age. From the very beginning, from early childhood, they should get used to the pages of a book, so that later on, being close to it becomes a necessity. It is no coincidence that psychologists advise future parents to read books to their children while they are still in the womb, and to listen to quiet music. Because during the womb, children have already developed certain skills, the improvement of which, as I mentioned above, should begin from an early age, even before birth. If we take into account that children react to even the slightest noise while in the womb, then it is understandable with what pleasure they will listen to the quiet voice of their parents reading them a fairy tale or some masterpiece of poetry. In this way, the child not only gets used to the parent's voice, but also lays the foundation for the development of the ability to listen, which is one of the most important skills a person possesses, and it can be said that it is the basis for a successful future, a successful career, and the formation of a realized personality.
Thus, the future parent has a very large and important function ; he must take care of not only the physical, but also the spiritual development and perfection of the child. Before that, it would be better for the parent to be well aware of the importance of his own role in the life of his child.
