Selecting the right program can ignite a lifelong passion for reading and facilitate language acquisition, especially for children learning English as a second language. A well-designed program bridges the gap between mere alphabet recognition and comprehensive reading, making the process exciting and engaging. But the wrong choice can have the opposite effect. A program that doesn’t resonate with a child could turn reading into a tedious chore, something to be avoided instead of embraced.
