Reading is a habit that not only educates but also makes one reflect upon life and teaches valuable life lessons.

Here we (@NuriaStore) share some tips to turn your kids into avid readers:

1/
Create a reading space

Have a designated reading space in the house for keeping all reading materials-- it could be a bookshelf in a corner or a table in the kid's room. The idea is to make books and other reading materials accessible for children at home.

2/
Make reading a daily habit

Just like eating healthy food and exercising daily are essential for staying fit, reading regularly is important for keeping the mind sharp. And so, parents should make reading daily a part of their and their child's routine.

3/
Read to your kid

Whether it is reading the news to children from the newspaper or reading stories to them at bedtime-- make it a habit to read to your kids every day. This will teach them that reading and storytelling are important in life and they'll be encouraged to read more.
Take your children to the local library or bookstores

Make trips to your local library or come to our store- @NuriaStore with your children, and give them the opportunity to browse through different books and choose what they want to read

Why “The Sex Lives of African Women” Belongs On Every Man’s Bookshelf
I’m reading The Sex Lives of African Women, a crucial collection of intimate stories. The author compiles tales from women across the globe that need a platform. And although this work thrives via the specificity of its unnamed accounts, it rings universal.
It’s the kind of book that makes me rethink how “progressive” I am. That is a false game to play. I still need to invest in the sexual freedom of women, whether they’re my partners or friends.

Fascinating i’m reading a book and just today i did notice about a woman called Lilith, Adam’s first wife whom no one wants to talk about

Adam’s first wife wasn’t Eve.

Lilith, who claims to be equal to Adam, has only been mentioned once in the bible— but not by her name.
Lilith is believed to be the first wife of Adam. According to Genesis 1, Lilith was created from the same soil as Adam, and this meant for her that they both were equal.
The core book of kabbalah, also known as Zohar, characterizes Lilith as a dark temptress.

The people who follow this book believe that Lilith bores demonic children by “nocturnal emission” of men and kills children by strangling them.

I thought I'll put down a few ways authors can reach out to @NuriaStore.
We always do our homework and research on new releases. However sometimes we can miss a new book, that has been released or published.
Nonetheless, if your book is published, ask your publishers to ensure that your book comes to the attention of #NuriaStore booksellers. While booksellers will still take the final call on whether your book is stocked or not, at least you have got our attention.
