How to Make Your Child a Reader for Life
Kropp has real-life advice for parents who believe, as he does, that
reading is one of life's great joys. He emphasizes the importance of
building a literate household--where fiction, nonfiction, magazines, and
newspapers abound--and everyone reads. While you can't pick up a
mainstream parenting magazine without seeing an article on the importance
of reading to your baby, Kropp deals with keeping your child out of
reading slumps throughout school and with or without the support of an 'A'
school and teacher to lead the way.
How
to Teach Your Baby to Read
I just finished reading this book. Though I have not tried the method yet, I can tell you that my mother read this book 26 years ago, used the method and I was reading by the age of 2. So I am now in the process of using this method with my own son. It is a well written book which clearly explains an easy method that in my family at least, is tried and true :) A must read!

Raising a Reader: A Mother's Tale of Desperation and Delight
First it's talking, then walking, then potty training. Being a parent is all to often about comparing our kids and their accomplishments to other kids and theirs. When you're little ones start school things heat up even more as you compare their academic achievements and wonderdramatically if they are smart and if you can make them smarter. It's a vicious cycle -- and it can take all the fun out of learning to read, which arguably is one of life's greatest pleasures and rightfully should be a time of fun and exploration with your young child. Jennie Nash knows this. She is admittedly obsessed but candidly shares with us her journey from niggling, nagging, read-to-me Mom to locing, laughing, let's-snuggle-and-read-together Mom. It's a trip we all should take and she shows us how. She also offers lists, tips and tricks to reduce the stress and increase the peace during reading time, homework time and family time. This is a MUST read for anyone with kids under 10!
Nose Is Not Toes
I purchased the reading program by Glen Dolman 40 years ago. My daughter was 2 months old at the time. We began using the items supplied as soon as they were received. My baby Kristi began talking well before she was a year old and in multiple word sentences. She is now a multi-language speaking adult and translates texts in both Italian and Spanish. I believe the reading training at such an early age directly resulted in her facility for languages and the ease she experienced in learning new languages. I recommend this book and training program to any new parent without reservation. It is an investment in your childs future.
