Donalyn Miller says she has yet to meet a child she
couldn't turn into a reader. No matter how far behind
Miller's students might be when they reach her 6th grade
classroom, they end up reading an average of 40 to 50 books
a year. Miller's unconventional approach dispenses with
drills and worksheets that make reading a chore. Instead,
she helps students navigate the world of literature and
gives them time to read books they pick out themselves. Her
love of books and teaching is both infectious and
inspiring. The book includes a dynamite list of
recommended "kid lit" that helps parents and teachers find
the books that students really like to read.
