Does a Gold or Silver Seal Always Mean Quality?
Just because a book has a gold or silver seal doesn’t always mean it’s a winner. Some books get awarded because of their beautiful illustrations. I’ve seen books (that received a golden or silver seal) that imprint repetitive harmful images and messages page after page. For example, if a child sees and hears 15 pages of undesirable behavior, images and messages and then one or two pages of good at the very end – it deserves a closer look!
You want the best books for you children. Books, audio and visual media are extremely powerful at causing the brain to build neurons that match to the quality and content of the impressions that they receive. This is ESPECIALLY important during the ages of approximately 0-7 years, when brain wave production is different than that of other ages – making them more susceptible to impressions. What happens is that these imprints get built up in the brain’s neural networks. This build up is responsible for forming your child’s habits, reactions, beliefs about life and everything!
