It will show you how to take the steps that will ensure that they become really good, confident readers and that they are successful at school. Most importantly though, it really does contain everything you need to know to ensure your children learn to read easily and naturally and probably much earlier than you'd expect. I'd also like to suggest you try to get hold of a copy of The Read-Aloud Handbook. The book is not expensive and it's very easy to read. If you’re a parent who’s even slightly interested in getting your baby or child into reading, set aside an hour or so one day and explore Jim’s website. Jim retired from public speaking in 2008 but still maintains his website which is full of information about literacy, reading, books and the effects of TV on children. We need to start as early as possible, ideally on the day our child is born and we need to do it every day.
But it's not enough to just read aloud occasionally once our children are old enough to talk. Like Mem Fox, Jim Trelease strongly believes that reading should be fun for children and that the way to make this happen is for their parents to read to them.
