How to Raise a Reader
New York Times children's book editors Pamela Paul and Maria Russo share their tips, tricks, and recommendations for getting your children to read (and keeping them reading) at every stage of childhood. Their recently published book of the same name is available for checkout from the Burke's Library Parenting Collection
