Allow children to choose the books they wish to read to themselves, even if they don't meet your high standards.
In "The Read-Aloud Handbook," Jim Trelease emphasizes the importance of allowing children the freedom to select their own reading materials. This approach encourages a love for reading and fosters independence in choosing books that resonate with their interests, even if those choices don't align with traditional educational standards.
Treasuring children's preferences can ignite their desire to read and build their engagement with literature. When children feel empowered to choose, they are more likely to enjoy reading, which ultimately supports their growth as readers and learners.
