Description

While the critical importance of summer reading loss is receiving more attention than in the past, not all summer reading programs are alike.

Featuring three new chapters and extensive updating, the second edition of this groundbreaking book describes current research that confirms the importance of key elements in the authors’ summer reading model that are essential to ensure gains for low-income, low-achieving students.

Allington and McGill-Franzen—acknowledged experts on reading, remedial reading, and special education—describe multiple models of effective summer reading and book distribution initiatives.

They also provide research-based guidelines for planning a successful summer reading program, including tips on book selection, distribution methods, and direction for crucial follow-up. New for the Second Edition:Description of the authors’ recent related research. A new chapter on connecting summer reading programs and the summer reading setback phenomenon by Jennifer M.

Graff. A new chapter on summer reading and multilingual and English learners by Natalia Ward. A new chapter on what libraries can do to support children, teens, and families by Maria Cahill. An extensively revised chapter focused on enticing boys to read by Lunetta M.

Williams. List of new “favorite titles” as selected by students. Reference to new research that validates the authors’ emphasis on recreational rather than leveled reading, free books, and student choice of reading material.
