This review is from: Lasting Impressions: Weaving Literature into the Writing Workshop (Paperback)
Shelley Harwayne really captures the importance of exposing children to literature, involving them in it, and relating it to their lives. She encourages sharing their family stories, forming a bond with a literate adult and reading together. She says you should let the children laugh, cry, support, and gently nudge one another to build a community of learning and sharing. Her book is best summed up in her words, "Fill them up. Read aloud, read silently, recite, do choral readings, tell stories, dramatize, sing. Fill them up some more. Then step back and watch what happens"(page 1). She goes on to discuss literature as a seedbed for discovering topics and for the writer's notebook, listening, mentors, booktalk, confering and record keeping, and mini-lessons. A great book! A must buy!
