Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Raising a Reader is for every parent who ever worried about a child's reading, who compared one child with another, who charted, prodded, prompted, and coaxed words into little mouths and minds. For any parent--timid, pushy, or frightened--who has a child entering school and literacy, THIS is the book for you."
--Jim Trelease, author of The Read-Aloud Handbook
