Do you introduce Reader's Workshop with any of the versions of Goldilocks books for the analogy of the "just right" book? This book is not about Goldilocks, but it's perfect for talking about how to find a book that you're interested in reading. I use it one of my launching lessons for Reader's Workshop. It's perfect for K-2 students.

This is the third in a series of children's books about reading. The rhyming is wonderful and the art is terrific. Encouraging reading in children is so important and all three books really hit the mark. I have purchased 8 copies of each book over the years and have given them to my nieces and nephews as holiday gifts.

Debbie Bertram and Susan Bloom's THE BEST BOOK TO READ addresses a common problem: how a child can choose a book to read among all available. A fun rhyme accompanies a survey of different kinds of books that invite an avid reader at the library. Michael Garland's large full-page bright color drawings lends excitement.

This book is great when you have a youngster who really doesn't like to read. It will give them a boost to want to read. The pictures are wonderful and inviting. My first grade class loved it.
