While the critical importance of summer reading loss is receiving
more attention than in the past, not all summer reading programs
are alike. Featuring three new chapters and extensive updating, the
second edition of this groundbreaking book describes current
research that confirms the importance of key elements in the
authors' summer reading model that are essential to ensure gains
for low-income, low-achieving students. Allington and
McGill-Franzen-acknowledged experts on reading, remedial reading,
and special education-describe multiple models of effective summer
reading and book distribution initiatives. They also provide
research-based guidelines for planning a successful summer reading
program, including tips on book selection, distribution methods,
and direction for crucial follow-up. New for the Second Edition:
Description of the authors' recent related research. A new chapter
on connecting summer reading programs and the summer reading
setback phenomenon by Jennifer M. Graff. A new chapter on summer
reading and multilingual and English learners by Natalia Ward. A
new chapter on what libraries can do to support children, teens,
and families by Maria Cahill. An extensively revised chapter
focused on enticing boys to read by Lunetta M. Williams. List of
new "favorite titles" as selected by students. Reference to new
research that validates the authors' emphasis on recreational
rather than leveled reading, free books, and student choice of
reading material.
