The Read-Aloud Family: Making Meaningful and Lasting Connections with Your Kids

The stories we read—and the conversations we have about them—help shape family traditions, create lifelong memories, and become part of our legacy. Many parents can't get their children to become book-lovers. Other parents lose touch with what their child is reading. Reading aloud with your children not only has the power to change a family—it can help your children grow into thoughtful, intelligent, empathetic adults. We all know that connecting deeply with our families can be difficult in our busy, technology-driven society. Reading aloud is one of the best ways to be fully present with our children, even after they can read themselves, but it isn't always easy to do. In this book, Sarah Mackenzie—author and host of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast—will teach you how to: From a toddler's wonder to a teenager's resistance, you will find the inspiration you need to start a read-aloud movement in your own home that will bring your family closer together.
