Literature-Based Reading Activities is a rich collection of reading activities using appropriate literature samples to illustrate the activities. Easily adaptable to any level and any other literary text, this book includes a wide variety of literature and a wide range of engaging activities, with clear instructions, templates, and student examples for each. A must-have for any teacher who wants a collection of easy-to-find, easy-to-follow activities that promote better reading skills. I love this book. - Joan Powell, Whitley County Board of Education, Williamsburg, KY The book offers numerous engaging reading activities for pre, during, and post-reading activities for grades K-8. It is written very clearly and is not bogged down with a lot of academic or teaching jargon. A great alternative to traditional Q&A reading activities. - Erika Tucker, Redan Middle School, Lithonia, GA
