How Schools Are Killing Reading and What You Can Do About It

Mr. Kelly Gallagher

This book explores the systematic death of the love of reading in our schools, which is often exacerbated by ineffective teaching practices. The author argues that American schools are furthering the decline of reading by valuing the development of test-takers over the development of lifelong readers. He provides specific steps for teachers, literacy coaches, and administrators to reverse the downward spiral in reading and prevent the loss of another generation of readers.
