It is because of this role of books, that researchers and educators worldwide emphasize the importance of selecting the right type of books for children.

Both pupil and teacher using the Let Me Learn process develop a greater sense of efficacy about their teaching and learning. (Johnston, 1998). All students will take what they have discovered about themselves anywhere they go. As a result of this, students communicate better among themselves as they acknowledge and accept differences. This also encourages underachievers to participate equally in classroom learning. Hence this process makes pupils feel empowered and builds their self-esteem.

You will, I am certain, forgive my initial fears and concerns once I have shared with you the following three reasons. First of all, it is a long-established fact that our Faculty is by far the largest faculty at our University. Its 'largeness' reaches out in more directions than one! We have, hands down, the largest number of full-time and part-time students registered on our wide-ranging programmes. In addition to this, and understandable so, we make up the largest college of permanent and temporary members of academic statl'. It is often said that 'big is beautiful' -that may or may not be the case depending on how one looks at things. 'Big' brings with it more responsibilities and more, far more, problems, headaches and heartburn.
