How to Make Your Child a Reader for Life
How to Make Your Child a Reader for Life - Paul Kropp
This was an excellent book. I saw it in the stacks at the library, so I signed it out. I would recommend it to any parent, and I want to buy a copy for us. Huge gift hint there, family! It has suggestions for avid readers, reluctant readers, sorted by age, sex, and interests. It also addresses "aliteracy" when kids who love to read stop reading (usually in the 4th and 9th grades). This guy has done a ton of research, and his tone is excellent. Robert Munsch's intro summed it up: he didn't want to read it, because he thought it would be boring. Once he picked it up, he couldn't put it down. Highly, highly recommend this one.
