Today I get to share a chapter from my new book, The Read-Aloud Family: Making Meaningful and Lasting Connections with Your Kids.
This is chapter 6 (one of my favorites!), where I talk about how we can create a book club culture at home, and thereby raise kids who read for the love it. This is how our kids become “real readers.”
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- how and why to create a book club culture in your home
- why we need to read books that don’t “count” toward anything!
- how to help your kids become real readers
