Do you have a reluctant reader at home?

If a child says they do not like reading, it often means they have not found the right kind of book yet. For many reluctant readers, the best books are the ones that feel playful from the very first page: short chapters, plenty of pictures, funny characters, and stories that move quickly. That is why a lot of children do well with series fiction. Once they connect with one book, choosing the next one becomes much easier.

Here are some Usborne books and series that make a strong starting point for reluctant readers: https://tinyurl.com/3jpstwdz
