How can I get my reluctant reader to read?
Answer
The most common reason a reader is reluctant is that they haven’t found a book they have really enjoyed. Speak with a Youth Services staff member for suggestions of books that may interest your child.
TIP: Graphic novels are a great way to engage reluctant readers, and Smyrna Public Library has a wide selection for various age levels to explore. Find the graphics collection in the first floor juvenile chapter books after the series fiction. Graphic novels have a "graphics" sticker on the spine to make them easy to spot.
