How to judge whether a book is good or suitable for our children? Each has his own point of view. As a mother and one of the book printers in China. I summarized my experience in choosing children's books. There are four criteria for choosing good children's books for our children.

Four criteria for select a good children’s book

1. The first standard of book selection is to see whether it is a book published by a regular publishing house. If you want to buy children's books or print your own children’s books. You'd better choose the books published or printed by professional children’s book printers or publishing house. It's not that the children's books published by non-professional children's book publishing houses are bad. But because the children's book market is a hot spot. Many printing houses that are not children's book professional lines are also going into this field. So there is a difference between professional and unprofessional.

2. The second standard of book selection: take your children to the bookstore to choose books in person. Seeing is believing. At the same time, go through the books in person to see the material, technology, and paper of the books. Especially whether the content is conducive to the health of children.

3. The third criterion for selecting books: consult the teachers or professionals. Teachers are educators, and their understanding of books and children is more targeted. At the same time, you can also communicate and discuss with friends to see what criteria to select books. Some classic books are historical and have been handed down through the baptism of time.

4. The fourth standard of selecting books: read the content. Some books are age-specific. Some are suitable for one-year-old babies. And some are suitable for five-year-old babies. Babies will be very different if they differ by one year. Books read by every age group will be different. For example, there will be great differences in cognition between one-year-old babies and three-year-old babies.

Children aged 0-2 years old like books that can make simple sounds. Or books that can be touched and disassembled like toys. If you self-publish the book for your child, custom board books for your children are more suitable.

Children aged 3 to 4 like nursery rhymes. Interesting and repetitive stories and game books are best.

For children aged 4-6 years old, short and wonderful fairy tales are their favorite. And some handmade books and animal books are also their favorite;

Children aged 7 to 8 like to read stories similar to their real life. If print children's book, a story book is more suitable for this age.

Children aged 9 to 11 like work with rich knowledge. Such as the Encyclopedia of youth, as well as novels with fantasy.

After the age of 12, children's interest in reading turns from the plot of the story to the details of the text. Some adult works are rich in literature and fresh content. Such as some essays and poems, can also start to enter the field of their reading.

Children's books are a bridge for children to explore the world. And children's books are a medium to stimulate children's curiosity. Children's book printing is also very important. When self-publish the book for your child. Must select professional children's book printers.
