Choose the Happy Hollisters Series for reading assignments.
Have you ever felt that getting the child in your life to complete their school reading assignments is a nearly impossible task? You’re not alone! We know reading assignments are an essential part of literacy development in children. Yet a child’s motivation can droop when they start getting interested in other activities and obligations.
The Happy Hollisters mystery book series for children is a terrific choice for a homeschool reading list where kids get to choose the books they read. A reading program that includes youth mystery novels can inspire children to read and increase their reading skills as they delve into thrilling plots and exciting adventures.
The Purpose of School Reading Assignments
Reading assignments are the gateway to children understanding not only the book in hand, but most other topics they cover in school. Whether they’re reading from a textbook, the blackboard, or a digital device, the ability to understand and put into context the written word is crucial to every subject including math, science, social studies, and overall critical thinking skills.
It’s undeniable that reading is important to general learning. There are additional benefits that serve a child for life, including:
- Fostering imagination
- Boosting creativity
- Promoting critical thought
The engrossing tales in a children’s mystery book series also help a child develop strong reading skills, build self-confidence, and sharpen social skills.
For the Love of Reading: Mystery Series for Children
Research consistently shows that children who choose their own books become better, more passionate readers. The best kids’ mystery books have relatable characters and intriguing plots that kids want to return to over and again. The Happy Hollisters series also features a diverse collection of cultures, settings, and teachable moments which can broaden a child’s worldview. The family dynamics, which emphasize respect, strong sibling relationships, and character building, are timeless traits all parents and grandparents want to instill in their children.
