What kinds of investments should we make to help these kids get ahead? The results of this study indicate that getting some books into their homes is an inexpensive way that we can help these children succeed. Evans said, Even a little bit goes a long way. Having as few as 20 books in the home still has a significant impact on motivating a child to a higher level of education, and the more books you add, the greater benefit the children get. Parents who have books in the home increase the level of education their children will attain(獲得), whether rich or poor, according to a 20year study led by Mariah Evans.
