What were my kids born to do? This question drives a parent's desire to guide their children in discovering their passions, especially when it comes to reading. However, instilling a love for reading can be challenging, as it is a skill that children must master to varying degrees. Can passion truly be passed from parent to child? While you can't force someone to love a particular interest, parents often try, sometimes with desperate results. Jennie Nash's obsession with getting her kids to read led her to realize that fostering a passion for reading involves a delicate balance of persistence and letting go. Through her experiences, she illustrates that the journey of nurturing a relationship with words is filled with both struggles and joys. Nash shares stories of her daughters' growth in reading and her own learning process, emphasizing that magical moments occur naturally when surrounded by good books and recognizing each child's individuality. Each chapter concludes with practical tips and games inspired by her narrative, along with a comprehensive index of books she enjoyed with her children, offering a year's worth of titles for families to explore together.
