Book Whisperer
By Donalyn MillerPublisher Description
Donalyn Miller says she has yet to meet a child she couldn't turn into a reader. No matter how far behind Miller's students might be when they reach her 6th grade classroom, they end up reading an average of 40 to 50 books a year. Miller's unconventional approach dispenses with drills and worksheets that make reading a chore. Instead, she helps students navigate the world of literature and gives them time to read books they pick out themselves. Her love of books and teaching is both infectious and inspiring. The book includes a dynamite list of recommended "e;kid lit"e; that helps parents and teachers find the books that students really like to read.

“One of the genres that I read very little is non-fiction. The truth is, I believe if I find books in this genre with subjects I like, I will pick them up. That's what happened to me with The Book Whisperer: Awakening the Inner Reader in Every Child.
That's happened to me while browsing the Libby app of my city's public library. I saw that I could borrow it and picked it up right away.
I believe that every teacher and particularly high school English teachers should devour this work.
I have a strong feeling that everyone that loves to read, also, parents of young children should pick up this five-stars book.
The thing I love most about the book is its focus: how to nurture students to be enthusiastic readers. The stories of the struggles she had to help turn kids onto reading and the examples of things she's tried are incredibly helpful. This book is so practical and so useful and, most importantly, so HOPEFUL. I needed that.”
