review 1: Born to Read tells us the story of Sam, a little boy who had an enormous love for books and reading. Sam read everywhere, he read in bed, at the mall and even while playing basketball. Not only did Sam read books everywhere he could, he also read a large variety of books like books on concentration, motivation and good nutrition. I would love to use this book as a motivational tool for my students, reading is such an important part of school that it is important to instill good habits into your students. The book has colorful illustrations that many kids can relate to. Lines from the book like " Readers win and winners read" and "yes, readers can do anything" are the type of things that I would like to instill in my students and that this book will help me do. This would b... moree great for a read aloud and can be used in class activities.
review 2: This book is a great way for students to see the benefits of reading, and that it is not bad if you read or like to read. Reading can enhance imagination and help you in almost everything. I would read this book to the students in the beginning of the year when I introduce the reading center and the expectations we have as readers. We would create our reading rules here and how reading is a free, an open opportunity for them to pick up and read. less

The illustrations sometimes reference other books which is fun, but the story was weird.
