An Exceptional Book to teach parents reading is important.
15 Feb 1999
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I had to read this book for a children's literature course and I was floored by all of the information that Jim Trelease gave about how important reading is for young children. Not only did he support all of his ideas with fact but the book was easy to understand. I think that this book is very informative for people who do not know which books to choose to read to their children. Futhermore this book gives the do's and don't lists about reading to young children as well as older children. It also tells of how books should be read outloud to children and adolescents all though school. This includes highschool classes. This book is amazing and I was very impressed by it and I hope that Jim Trelease continues to write and publish lists of books that are good reads for children.

This is an excellent book. Every parent should have a copy.

Reading aloud to children is one of the best gifts a parent can give a child. The benefits are immediate, and can also last a lifetime

overstates the obvious
28 Aug 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Sorry, but I found this book rather flat. The author's thesis is rather obvious, and while it has some value as a source of enthusiasm/inspiration, it's not particularly insightful. Save your money and buy some books to read to your kid.
