Join us for RAR's Summer Adventure. 

Last week we talked about reading aloud to kids who can read on their own,  but today we’re taking that a step further and talking about reading aloud with teens. 

You know the most important thing about reading aloud with teens, right? Surprise! It’s not their literary value or whether your teen knows how to analyze a story. It’s better than that.

(Much better).

Reading with teens can be pure magic. It’s such a simple way to slow down and enjoy one another’s company. And it’s really important to enjoy our teens’ company!

Read more about this and the importance of treating your teen’s reading life more like a book club (and less like a school assignment) in The Read-Aloud Family: Making Meaningful and Lasting Connections with Your Kids Through Books.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• what’s so magical about reading aloud with teens?
• why you can think of what you read with teens as adding concentric circles (in other words, we’re not moving up, we’re moving out)
• a few book recommendations to read with your teens, even if you haven’t been reading aloud to him or her lately
