Professor Barbara Sahakian from the Department of Psychiatry at the University of
Cambridge once said:
“Reading isn’t just a pleasurable experience – it’s widely accepted that it inspires
thinking and creativity, increases empathy, and reduces stress. But on top of this,
we found significant evidence that it’s linked to important developmental factors in
children, improving their cognition, mental health, and brain structure, which are
cornerstones for future learning and well-being.”
To encourage children to read books, especially those centered on Lord Sri Krishna and His beloved devotees, ISKCON Samskriti organizes an annual global online test for students from Grade IV to Grade IX. The test features questions in a Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) format.
The books prescribed for the various grade categories are listed below:
