Literacy Matters.
Thirty-seven percent of American fourth graders read below the "Basic" level on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) reading test (NCES, 2003).

Studies of individual families show that what they do to support literacy in the home is more important to student success than family income or education (Ballen & Moles, 1994).
