An indispensable guide to welcoming children—from babies to teens—to a lifelong love of reading, written by Pamela Paul and Maria Russo, editors of The New York Times Book Review. Do you remember your first visit to where the wild things are? How about curling up for hours on end to discover the secret of the Sorcerer’s Stone? Combining clear, practical advice with inspiration, wisdom, tips, and curated reading lists, How to Raise a Reader shows you how to instill the joy and time-stopping pleasure of reading. Divided into four sections, from baby through teen, and each illustrated by a different artist, this book offers something useful on every page, whether it’s how to develop rituals around reading or build a family library, or ways to engage a reluctant reader. A fifth section, “More Books to Love: By Theme and Reading Level,” is chockful of expert recommendations. Throughout, the authors debunk common myths, assuage parental fears, and deliver invaluable lessons in a positive and easy-to-act-on way.

What readers are saying about Save Your Sanity: I started reading this with a mind full of questions and heart full of worries about homeschooling high school. It's rare to find a book that answers all of your questions on a topic, but Ann has done it with such warmth and candor! If you would like practical advice from a veteran homeschooler that will put your mind at ease and inspire you about the possibilities of homeschooling high school, this is for you! --Tina H. I've just finished this book, and I have a list of moms I'd like to recommend it to. Ann makes some of the biggest lessons of both parenting teens and homeschooling high school so easy to digest and tackle. A homerun. --Beth Z. With humor and great insight, Ann shares thoughts gathered over her many years of homeschooling, and I am so thankful. This book is a gift. As helpful as all the practical tips are regarding topics such as AP classes and dual enrollment, I found that some of the most important thoughts come near the end as Ann reminds us to SEE our children for who they are and encourages us to know them and love them well. --Jocelyn W. In this book, Ann shares from her experience homeschooling 20+ years to help homeschool moms manage their expectations about the high school years. She distills the journey down to make it manageable yet effective to accomplish everything your teen needs. There is a little bit of everything in this book; all of it will help you be successful as you homeschool your teen. Ann believes that EVERY mom can CONFIDENTLY, COMPETENTLY--and even CONTENTEDLY--provide the COMPLETE high school education that her teen needs. This book will help guide you along the way.
