This book is about more than reading aloud. It's about time that parents, teachers, and children spend together in a loving, sharing way. |

This is a must read for all parents and teachers. Full of great information on education and reading. A fabulous list of suggested reading for all ages. The information is well organized with heartwarming stories illustrating the importance of reading. Someone said they give this book as a shower gift...what a great idea!
I've seen Jim Trelease in person and the one thing I remember most from his presentation was his suggestion to display books face out rather than the traditional way, spine out.
I thought it was interesting to read about how book publishers pay extra to get their titles placed facing out on the book shelves. Doesn't that make sense? And it's part of why it always seems like I can find so many books that look good when I'm in the book store and why I often feel overwhelmed by the options in the library.
After reading this book I started keeping track of all the chapter books we read to our daughter. She gives me a book report after each book we read and I record it in a journal. I'm looking forward to looking at it five or ten years from now. |

This newest edition of The Read-Aloud Handbook is every bit as well- written and chock-full of helpful information as its predecessors. Aside from the many great book reviews, it provides excellent reasoning and support for the practice of reading aloud to students - all students. All English/reading teachers need to keep a copy handy.

After reading Trelease's book (the fifth edition), I wanted to send a copy to every parent, teacher and administrator. I was already reading aloud to my children, but this book made such a convincing argument that I redoubled my efforts. The author clearly demonstrates the correlation between early exposure to books and later success in school and life. If all parents and teachers followed his advice, we could create a society of avid readers. His title is actually somewhat misleading, as it's more about how to get kids motivated to read. Reading aloud is one way to get there, but he also makes an extremely persuasive case for "silent sustained reading" as part of the school curriculum at both the primary and secondary level. He includes plenty of useful and innovative tips from parents and teachers, as well as great examples of how these techniques have been successful.

One and a half years ago, my kindergartener was reading at a 3rd grade level but lacked "comprehension". While he could retell basic plot elements, he appeared to lack any ability to synthesize or think about what he had read.
So I dutifully bought several comprehension workbooks and was preparing to work with him all summer. Then I stumbled across Trelease's wonderful handbook, and the light went on. What a compelling message about the importance of reading aloud to kids! What a wonderful book list! And what a beautifully simple way to transform my son into a truly comprehending reader!
All I needed to do was read to my son abundantly, ENCOURAGE discussion, rejoice and respond if he spontaneously asked questions while I was reading (THAT was a paradigm shift), and surround him with great books. I could toss out the workbooks.
My son's reading comprehension greatly improved, my children LOVE our read-aloud times - as do I - and they love to read themselves. What's not to like? This book is a wonderful resource that I have referred to repeatedly. |
