Hello,
Do you have a child who is not interested in reading? There are many possible reasons for the lack of interest but the one with the quickest solution is finding interesting books to read. And if you have a disinterested boy reader, your challenge is even greater. However, do not despair. One of the best ways to get your child interested in reading is with the graphic novel or comic book.
Often times the comic book is poo-pooed and not taken seriously. But if you've ever read a comic book then you know they have plot lines, story archs, character development, and a vocabulary beyond the stereotypical onomatopoeia action words. Plus, the vivid pictures help the struggling reader with comprehension. As I tell my students, read the pictures and read the words!
If you would like some suggested titles, send me a comment and I will be happy to get you and your child started!
Happy Reading,
Kathleen
