Emergent Literacy:Children begin to learn from the first day of born. Their speech and language skills develop and improve as they grow. They understand how to express their ideas, thoughts, feelings and communications to others. During early skills development, children learn reading and writing skills which are used for development of literacy. This development stage is known as emergent literacy. The emergent literacy period begins from birth and continues the preschool years.Children identify and interact with print in environment (books, magazines and signs), recognize words, use internet and play games. Gradually, children correlates the learning of speaking and listening with print and become ready to learn writing and reading. Therefore, emergent literacy is seen everywhere in homes, schools and communities. Adult intervention is necessary for emergent literacy of children. They require awareness, literacy practices and phonic knowledge in everyday life.Emergent reading is process of understanding print and its meaning. It starts with perceiving print in environment, gradually understanding the meaning and finally become the reader. Children see the environment print in daily live in form of words, colors and images on different labels, household items etc. Everything used by the children will be helpful in understanding of reading. The most important role in emergent learning in case of reading is through storybooks. Most the storybook are enjoyable for children. They have numerous benefits. Storybooks deliver awareness of different functions, forms of readings, book structure, page turning, and language of book to emergent learner. Similarly, it helps in understanding of language of reading through words, sentences, characters and ultimately gives the knowledge of letters and their sounds. Although reading is not just decoding the text word, it is complete understanding of whole sentence and meaning. Therefore, it requires the full attention of children which a storybook effectively provides. Sulzby and Rockafellow (2001) have produce a framework regarding the development of emergent through storybooks. It has been observe during their research that children initially learning through labeling and commenting the pictures and ultimately refine the language to read the words. Childrens engagement through poems and rhymes has the same effects as storybooks. Children will label the picture, repeatedly listen, exposure to text and print and finally able to read the text.
