This is so incredibly sad. What a way to squish a possible love of reading right out of a child.

I would try hard to work with the teachers on that one… alternatives, etc. Find a way to leave room for him to read books he can love. Just one of the reasons I homeschool. Each of us has to do what we think is best, I guess.

I love these tips!

My library still does summer reading programs for both kids and adults. I won two years in a row. 🙂

Anything that encourages kids to read is a great thing. Do they still do summer reading programs at libraries? I used to win every summer for the most books read. Guess that is why I like to write now 🙂
