Judy Blume on book buying habits
I have a middle grade reader at home, so I can relate to this quote from Judy Blue: “Children are the worst. Middle-grade readers will come into the store and go right to the series they know. You need to teach kids how to choose a book from the library or the bookstore, how to open it to first page, take a little taste, look at the back, see if you like what I call the voice.”
Love the idea of teaching kids not just how to read, but how to be readers, too.
