How to Read a Story by Kate Messner,
Illustrated by Mark Siegel ©2015
I love picture books! Picture books are not
just for young children or young readers—they are for everybody. Who doesn’t like to listen to a story?
Picture books often take us back to an
earlier time in our life and remind us of a younger self. Picture books also help us see more clearly
many of the interpretations needed for English Language Arts in middle and
senior grades. They serve as excellent mentor texts.
Kate Messner, author of the Marty McGuire
chapter book series, provides ten essential steps for reading a story while
Mark Siegel provides charming illustrations.
You will need your reading voice to share this book with students or
your own children and it will be so much fun that you may
have to “go right back to the beginning and start all over again.”
How to Read a Story would be a great first
book to read aloud for teachers and librarians.
