Encouraging Reluctant Readers

Thursday October 21, 2004
If you are looking for resources for reluctant readers, check out my Reluctant Readers directory. I just added a new link to the directory: Orca Book Publishers. The Orca Soundings series features teen fiction for reluctant readers. While the interest level is ages 12+, the reading levels range from grade 2.0 to grade 4.5. All of the books are Accelerated Reader (AR) selections and teacher's guides are available for most of the books.

If you are the parent or teacher of a reluctant reader and have helpful tips or information on encouraging reluctant readers, please share your experiences by posting a message on the About Children's Books Forum.
