Just the best!

ByCandaceon August 31, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is now a second-generation purchase for me. The well-loved copy which I bought when my now-31-year-old daughter was a newborn is still on my shelf, bearing many notes in its margins. Now I have purchased this edition for my daughter's to use with her soon-to-be-born son; she is overjoyed to get her own copy, having heard me talk about this book for so long. What a beautiful reference for those who want to provide the children in their lives with great literature with real substance--all reviewed with a Christian viewpoint in mind. I highly recommend!

Inspirational

ByGilon June 14, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a thought-provoking and inspirational book about the value of reading quality literature to children. I thought it was mostly going to be a booklist, but it is so much more and I thoroughly enjoyed the chapters on reading and enjoying literature with our children more than I ever would have imagined. I already do value and enjoy reading with my kids, so I just didn't think there would be much more to say about it. But I was wrong! Gladys Hunt outlines so many amazing values and ideas for reading with our kids - I was inspired! And, there is quite an extensive booklist, well organized by age and reading level, that has been a blessing to our family. Love it!

Great

ByMom of 4on March 1, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The first 90 or so pages of this book are written to help us understand the importance of reading to/with our kids. The author also explains how books can help us teach our kids and help them understand the world around them. Then, the rest of the book is lists of recommended books (often with summaries) by genre and age. A wonderfully useful book I often give as a baby shower gift. Highly recommended.

How did I not hear of this book before?!

ByAmazon Customeron August 11, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book is so amazing. Any family with young children (or older children) should have this book, especially homeschool families. This book has such great recommendations from newer to old classics, books I read as a child and ones I've never heard of. This book has added so many books to our at-home library guaranteed to be life-long favorites by giving us titles I would have never found at a book fair or local library. I love how this book not only has suggestions of books for each style and category broken down by age group but also has a small description for most books which was incredibly helpful.

An Ah Ha moment

ByMike S.on July 4, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This book is fantastic. What an easy way to inject compassion and empathy into your child's heart. (Something that is missing in the world today) Showing them, through reading these recommended works, stories of far away places, things, and people. Things they would never experience except through their own imaginations.

ByJoyceon December 16, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Though the book list is a bit old, Gladys' taste of books is super! My 6-year-old daughter get to discover many wonderful books through her recommendation! Gladys is totally right in comparing choice of food and choice of books. Good books are like balanced, carefully planned meals - they nourish our soul, enrich our life in the same way healthy food do to our body. While bad books are like junk food - they might be entertaining, but they do little more than that. Our physical taste buds can be trained from young, so do our spiritual ones! Her sharing about her view of why reading is important and how to guide and help children into the habit of reading is very thoughtful and helpful as well, in the first part of the book.

Great gift for parents!

As I read this book I was so wishing I had had it as a young mom. Definitely telling my adult kids about this book and hoping they'll use this for the grandkids!

Christian bias; short or no descriptions

Lots about Christianity and from a Christian publisher, although the front and back cover don't disclose that. It lists many good books but most with no or little description.Read more

Everyone who loves reading to children should have a copy!

I LOVE this book! I often bring it with me to the library (we go once or twice a week) and grab 5-10 books. Reading the first section of the book was an absolute treat.Read more
