If you want to raise kids who read not because they can, but because they love to… you’re in the right place.

On this episode of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast, Daniel Willingham and I discuss:

  • what cognitive science tells us that will help our kids fall in love with books. (It’s easier than you think!)
  • a new perspective on the role of technology in the reading life
  • and books that formed Daniel as a reader – he has great taste! ;)
