Why you should read to your students from Learning Unlimited Tutoring, Longmont, CO

ince writing his million-copy bestseller, The Read-Aloud Handbook, in 1982, Jim Trelease has traveled to all 50 states and abroad, advocating the benefits of reading aloud to children.

IN doing so, he’s won the applause of both teachers and parents for his pleas in behalf of literacy efforts that contain less “pain” and more focus on turning books into friends, not enemies.

WHILE more than 60 colleges use his Handbook as a text for education students, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Indonesian, and Spanish editions now reach parents and teachers worldwide, even inspiring the successful “All of Poland Reads to Kids” campaign in Europe.
