The statistics in this report no longer surprise me, but they still make me sad. Read to your child. Make it a ritual. Make it fun. Ask me to recommend books that your whole family will enjoy. I know many of you read Harry Potter. There are so many more choices. The Toys Go Out, Winnie the Pooh, Ramona the Pest, Henry Huggins all apeal to younger children. There are tons to recommend to you to read to your older students.
Want to be inspired, read The Reading Promise by Alice Ozma. It's about a single father who read to his daughter everyday until the day she left for college!
