The purpose of this preliminary study is to examine whether children's understanding of the main character in a book and the ways of instructor's speech have a significant correlation. The experiment was conducted in the following way: We first divide 4-5 year old kindergarten children into three groups (Group A, B, and C). Then, we read the book to Group A without any intonation, to Group B with a scary voice, and to Group C with a mild voice. After that, we ask questions about the contents to the children personally. The result of this experiment is that there is no significant difference among the groups in terms of children's understandings of the contents. This result is not so surprising when we consider it from the linguistic perspective.
