Editorial Reviews

Parents who wish to encourage their children to read will find this book an excellent source of activities for the whole familyactivities found successful by RIF volunteers throughout the country. The overriding message is ``Relax, trust your instincts, and enjoy your children.'' The activities stress the fun of reading, in the belief that this will result in children reading because they want to. The annotated age-grouped listing of books for children is excellent, as is the ``Further Resources for Parents and Children'' section. This is a necessary purchase for public libraries, as it will be used by parents, teachers, and librarians. A.R. Huggins, Memphis State Univ. Libs.
