Books on Reading to Children

A new book that is coming in October 2006 is called, "Let's Read Together: Improving Literacy Outcomes with Adult/Child Interactive Reading Inventory (ACIRI)." It is by Andrea DeBruin-Parecki, Ph.D., and will be published by Brookes Publishers.

The book explains about the quality of shared reading that really affects emergent literacy. It includes the only tool to measure the quality of adult AND child interactions during joint book reading. It is grounded in scientifically based reading research and is extensively field tested.

For more information, go to the web site at http://www.brookespublishing.com/store/books/debruin-parecki-7624/index.htm

It is a good book to look at related to evaluation.

    The NEW "The Read-Aloud Handbook" (2006-2007 edition) just got published. You might want to look at this related to research on reading to children. It is by Jim Trelease, and is published by Penquin Books.
