Many children refused to leave, waiting for the arrival of the next group, which once again emphasized the deep desire of our children to be read aloud to. Both children and parents got a huge charge of positive emotions and good mood with great pleasure to read, play, master. The Roza Otunbayeva Initiative has been implementing the "Stars Reading to Children" project in order to promote regeneration of the culture of the book reading and children's interest in books. Today's children read little, which adversely affects the formation of personality and development of its creative potential. The project attracts public attention to the need to read aloud to children as an indispensable element of the formation of the child's habits and a love of reading.
