Children's Book Week is the national celebration of books and reading for youth. Since 1919, Children's Book Week has been celebrated countrywide with author & illustrator appearances, parties, storytelling, and other book-related events in schools, libraries, bookstores, clubs -- anywhere where kids and books connect.
Here are 10 simple ways to help find books that children will want to read:
1. Involve your child/student in the process – ask about books they already like, then find similar ones.
2. Talk to other students/children/piers to see what books they enjoy. Also suggest your favorites from childhood
3. Research popular books for each child’s age group. Ask a librarian or teacher if you need assistance.
4. Help children find books related to their interests or hobbies.
5. Try books with silly titles or fun illustrations, especially for younger children, such as Captain Underpants or Where the Wild Things Are.
6. Recommend stories with fast-paced plots that keep children’s attention, such as mysteries and scary stories.
7. Look for books about famous people your children admire.
8. For a reluctant reader, choose books a level or two below the child’s grade to make reading easier.
9. Have your children read the book before or after watching its movie version.
10. Tie reading to fun family activities. For example, if you’re going to the zoo, suggest books about animals you might see.
