Book Reviews of The Read-Aloud Handbook: Sixth Edition

Book Review: "The more you read, the more you know..."
Summary: 5 Stars

Read this great resource for many more truths from Jim Trelease. The author's expertise in the reading field and down-to-earth practical methods combine for an outstanding guide to helping your child, and all children to which you reach out, become more successful readers and thus more productive students. Jim Trelease's theories regarding the importance of reading aloud to every child for 15 minutes a day - "either in the home or in the classroom" - are supported with documented evidence. He quotes the education adage, "What we teach children to love and desire will always outweigh what we teach them to just do." Mr. Trelease has inspired me to remember my love for reading, draw upon my past pleasant reading experiences, share those with my children and, then, make our own reading memories that they, in turn, may share with their children. I hope to build a reading legacy, not only within my own family, but for all the children in my daughter's middle school as I work to start a Read Aloud program there also. Mr. Trelease writes, "We easily can count, like the seeds in an apple, the number of books read by one child. But only God can count the number of apples that will come from a single seed or the number of readers who will eventually follow from one lifetime reader." Thank you, Jim Trelease, not only for inspiring me to plant reading "seeds", but for motivating me to inspire others to do the same!
