Step One: Find a story. (A good one.)
Step Two: Find a reading buddy. (Someone nice.)
Step Three: Find a reading spot. (Couches are cozy.)
 
Now: Begin.
Accomplished storytellers, Kate Messner and Mark Siegel chronicle the process of becoming a reader: from pulling a book off the shelf and finding someone with whom to share a story, to reading aloud, predicting what will happen, and—finally—coming to The End.
 
How to Read a Story
playfully and movingly illustrates the idea that the reader who discovers the love of story finds, at the end, the beginning.
