Every child can become an avid reader, and this beloved, classic guide shows how to make it happen. Jim Trelease explains:
• How reading aloud awakens children's imaginations and improves their language skills
• How to begin reading aloud and which books to choose
• How to create reader-friendly homes, classrooms, and libraries
• How to lure children away from the television and video games
Jim Trelease has made reading aloud a special pleasure for millions of people. With this revised edition he offers a new generation of parents, teachers, grand-
parents, and siblings the chance to discover the rewards-and the importance-of reading aloud to children.
