About this episode
Are you or your kids feeling overwhelmed by a long book list? Today I’m sharing how reading fewer books (yup!) can help our kids love books more.
Yep. We’re going to talk about reading fewer books.
What could it mean for your kids’ reading lives (and yours too!), to focus on reading fewer books and making the time spent reading them more enjoyable and richer?
Maybe even to have a reading life that is rich, relaxed, and leisurely?
If you or your kids are overwhelmed by a long book list, this sounds pretty great, right?
Tune in or read on to hear:
- The difference between reading a book and completing a book
- Why my own kids don’t track the number of books read
- How to make time for (quite possibly) the best kind of reading
