Parent Resources Suggested Readings:
Raising a Reader: A Mother’s Tale of Desperation and Delight By: Jennie Nash
"Raising a Reader is for every parent who ever worried about a child's reading, who compared one child with another, who charted, prodded, prompted, and coaxed words into little mouths and minds. For any parent -- timid, pushy, or frightened--who has a child entering school and literary, this is the book for you.” --Jim Trelease, author of The Read Aloud Handbook
How to talk so Kids will Listen and Listen so Kids will Talk By:
Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish
"Practical, sensible, lucid the approaches Faber and Mazlish lay out are so logical you wonder why you read them with such a burst of discovery." -- Family Journal
"The parenting bible." -- Boston Globe
