I think it's a good idea to let kids choose their book... LaSombra Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 07:33:47 PM
maybe have a list of books they can choose from or something. There are some books I just hated reading in school and others, I just loved. Let the kids choose. There are so many, anyway, that there's no way they could read them all.
