Learning to read can be a challenging adventure for some children. It seems that everyone from a child’s teacher to Mom and Dad and even Grandma is excited and waiting for the child to learn to read. All the pressure and expectations from the adults can put a damper on the excitement for the child. This loss of excitement can lead to a child who loses the desire to read. If you can find ways to make reading fun and enjoyable, children will be more willing to sit down and read a book.

Have you ever seen a personalized story book where your child’s name is printed in the story? This is a unique way to get your reluctant reader excited about a book. In these kinds of books, your child’s name and the name of their friends are printed in the story-line, making your child the star of their very own book! How motivating is that? They will have to read the book to find out what kind of adventure it contains!
