Teaching Students to Become Life-Long Readers


The Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller

This book is one I read for professional development over the summer this year.  I found it to be helpful in learning how to teach kids to LOVE reading.  Donalyn shares her theory and practice in an easy to digest format, sprinkled with many student quotes and examples.

What I took away from this book:  allow students to read books of their own choosing, share your love of reading with students, and give them time in school to read.  If I were a middle school reading teacher, there would be even more ideas to use.

If you love reading and want your students to be life-long readers, this book will set you on the right path.
