These numbers show that there is a [**“30 million word gap”**](https://blog.chsc.org/blog/what-is-the-30-million-word-gap) between those children from professional families and those children who come from families at or below the poverty level.   • Reading aloud stimulates language development even before a child can talk. • Reading aloud to a child for 15 minutes every day - approximately the time of a bedtime story - is crucial for reading, learning and [**language skill development**](http://www.chsc.org/speech-language/#services-for-children). • If a child is not reading at grade level by the end of the first grade, there is an 88% probability the child will not be reading at grade level by the end of the fourth grade. • Nationally, 37% of children arrive in kindergarten without the skills necessary to begin their learning journey. • More than half the children in the US (13 million) will not hear a bedtime story tonight.   **DID YOU KNOW**: [**Cleveland Hearing & Speech Center in University Circle**](http://www.chsc.org/contact/) is one of the many locations of the **Little Free Library.** To encourage reading and literacy in children, any child may choose a book to read and keep.
