I found a few ideas that I’ll use this year. This book is definitely intended for classroom teachers, not teacher librarians.

“Remember the firemen are rarely necessary. The public itself stopped reading of its own accord.” Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451.

The Joy of Reading is a guide for educators, teachers, librarians, administrators and parents/students on how to create an environment where ALL students find the joy in reading. Filled with facts, data, quotes, book recommendations and so much more, @donalynm @professornana put their hearts on the pages to show/remind us all what teaching reading should be all about.

I'm so glad this book is in the world. My greatest hope is that Donalyn & Teri's message sinks deep into the psyche of today's educators. The best gift we can give our students is a true, authentic, life-long reading identity. Think of a world like that. Let's do our part!

Donalyn Miller is my reading guru. Teri Lesense is a close second. Pairing them together on a book about how to get students to love reading is a hit! This book talks about the need for joy in reading and how that joy will help students become lifelong readers. I loved it. I received an advanced copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.
