Review
Bradbury provides ideas that adults can use with grades 1 and 2 to read aloud to children in a fun way, including many reading techniques that enhance all the reading skills in a pleasurable way. Many of the techniques can be taught and used by volunteers or paraprofessionals who can conduct read-alouds in any school or public library setting....This volume is worth the price to build a larger repertoire of successful read-aloud ideas, and to see that every child is experiencing a regular diet of active listening.Teacher Librarian
Review
This resource book contains over fifty read-aloud plans for outstanding books to read with children in first and second grades. Related titles are highlighted relating to each of these plans. Youth librarians will find this of particular help as it offers Tips and Techniques and an extensive Book Notes section that lists hundreds of titles by subject with a brief summary of each....School librarians can make this title available for teachers of grades 1 and 2. Public libraries can use it in their children's programming as well provide access for parents to get ideas for reading aloud to children.Christian Library Journal
