Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
The newly revised and updated fifth edition of The Read-Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease uses his trademark Q&A format to address such issues as television, library funding and the Harry Potter phenomenon. A "Treasury of Read-Alouds" in the back of the book suggests starting points for parents.

From AudioFile
Since the publication of his first Read-Aloud Handbook, Trelease has made a serious avocation of spreading his gospel about the value of reading aloud to children and teens. To spread the word via audio is a natural transition and one that works beautifully. Trelease shares his message with clarity and fervor. He moves smoothly from the obvious educational and social advantages to the rationale for reading aloud to older offspring and students. Overall, this is an audiobook that takes full advantage of the medium, entertaining by moving gracefully between lecture mode, demonstrations and success stories. D.P.D.
