Show Notes

This week I’m sharing the second part of a Read-Aloud Revival Premium Master Class all about helping our kids love books by treating their reading lives more like we treat our own.

If you want something better than book reports or reading comprehension sheets for your kids, you’re in the right place. 

If you’re wondering whether you need to do literary analysis (and how to do it without killing your child’s love of the book), you’re in the right place.

If you want your kids to read because they love to (and not because they have to), you’re in the right place. 

This is the second half of this master class. Listen to the first half here. (You don’t have to listen to the first half to understand the second, but you probably want to!)

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • What it looks like for kids to be real readers
  • What most of us are getting wrong when it comes to “teaching” literature to our kids
  • Do your kids need literary analysis? And what should that look like, anyway?

I also answer a listener question about … how to know when your child is ready to learn to read.
