Let your kids read. Notice the word “let.” Don’t “make” them read material they will hate. Let them pick out their own reading. Yes, Stephen King is okay for certain ages. Yes, graphic novels are wonderful. Use common sense, but a student reading what they want will KEEP reading.

Great advice from an excellent teacher of English. Too many teachers would have given people a list of what their kids “should” read during this time. Good job, William Scott Foley.
