I love to read, and I want to teach my kids to do the same.

Reading is one of my favorite things. I wish some days that I could do nothing but that! Lay on a beach and read... But I digress. My son LOVES to read, most of the time. He has taken to devouring chapter books above his "grade level," which is encouraging. Then there's my daughter who has fought me about learning to read. Just one more struggle between a strong-willed child and a mom. There are days when she surprises me and WANTS to read to me. So I make sure to listen! It's for this reason that I want win this book, Raising Bookworms: Getting Kids Reading for Pleasure and Empowerment by Emma Walton Hamilton. And Frugal Mommy of 2 Girls is giving away a copy! Check it out! Also at the book's website you can register for a free report on "Five Keys to Getting-- and Keeping-- Kids Reading." I registered for mine and am hoping to glean some ideas from it. I also put a hold on the book itself at my local library. One way or another I will read this book!! LOL |
