Reading Is Our Business How Libraries Can Foster Reading Comprehension

Motivating children to read is essential to building a lifelong love of reading. Many parents cannot model engagement with books and instead, teachers, school media specialists, and children's librarians must step into the breach to help children embrace a love of reading. According to award-winning librarian-educator and author Sharon Grimes, to help students love books and reading, their skills must go beyond merely recognizing words and turning pages without comprehension. She frames the situation with an insightful overview of current research on reading and how children learn.Grimes, Sharon is the author of 'Reading Is Our Business How Libraries Can Foster Reading Comprehension' with ISBN 9780838909126 and ISBN 0838909124.
