Ignore this book and go for Jim Trelease's classic Read-Aloud Handbook instead. Beyond the basics of taking your kids to the libraries and to bookstores, filling your house with books, and serving as reading models yourselves, this book has little to offer. The authors refer to research studies without citing their sources, subscribe to the weird premise that parents should keep e-readers and iPads away from their children if they want them to read (it shouldn't be either/or) and believe that it's perfectly natural for reading at school to suck because teachers have so little time to impart so much knowledge. Nevertheless, the authors seemingly backtrack by saying that although it's not ok for kids to have e-readers or iPads to read books, kids should be encouraged to record book podcasts and to post them such places like YouTube ....and that if your kids are struggling, one way to motivate them may be to follow an author’s Twitter page. All in all, it seems like a hodge-podge of advice with very little unifying vision behind it ... again, Trelease's book is much more satisfying with respect to all this.
