Review Quotes




" Raising a Rock-Star Reader is a must-havefor every parent, grandparent, caregiver: all who love and nurture a child! This wonderfully warm yet truly brilliant book

provides practical and accessible tips and exercises to actively engage all children in becoming lifelong readers and writers, right from the start."

-- Pam Allyn, Literacy Advocate, Author and Founder of LitWorld



"As an award-winning educational blogger and educator, I've been familiar with the incredible work Amy and Allison have done for years. However, not only as a teacher do I appreciate what they share, but as a mother of two children, I often find myself turning to their resources and advice to support my efforts at home and within the classroom. Raising a Rock-Star Reader is truly the book I have been waiting for: one that is filled with practical tips I can read today and try tomorrow. These ladies have packed this book with priceless step-by-step guides, easy-to-understand language, beautiful visuals, and creative tips to help each person feel the success they've been craving for each young reader to possess. This is not only a book you'll read cover to cover; it's one you'll find yourself referring to time and time again for those 'just-right' ideas that simply work!" --ERIN KLEINScholastic Top Teacher, Speaker, Author, Award-Winning Educator
