The Book Whisperer: Awakening the Inner Reader in Every Child by Donalyn Miller
5.0
Absolutely wonderful book! I'm lucky in that I have always loved reading just as the author does, and that I had that love early enough that the education system didn't deter me from it. What I would have given to have had a teacher like Miller, who actually cares about the best and most effective way to reach her students. This should be required reading for all parents, educators, and education administrators - or anyone interested in literacy and education in general. Great!
