Lots of great ideas on how to get your kids interested in reading!
How can you teach your children to love books? Read this book to find out! Great condition.
This really works-my kindergarten daughter reads at a second grade level!
23 copies on offer here, but no copies at the Los Angeles Public Library, although they have many of her other books, she being quite the expert.
Note the importance of the book being of interest to the reader; I have certainly found that to be true working with teenagers.
The lists of books are merely a 'jumping off point (8).'
I just checked my copy at random, choosing Chapter 9, looking up fifty fiction and non-fiction titles in the LAPL catalogue and found many more than I would have imagined. The Central Library tried to keep two copies of everything, one circ and one ref, and there were several they had no copy of. But there were many titles that they had and also existed at one or two of the branches. There were even more titles that were still at eight or ten or fifteen branches. Thus this now quite old book is more useful than I feared. Of course, the LAPL is a very large system and so my PBS comrades might not find so many titles locally. For example, there were less than a dozen of the fifty still extant at the small branch library from which I am typing this--that it pretty good, given their limited shelf space and constant new arrivals.
The short chapters about discovering your child's interests, figuring out his/her level of understanding, and 'moving your child along' are succinct and useful.
