These colorfully illustrated 8-page booklets contain simple but powerful ideas to encourage reading at home. They are available to schools and literacy organizations for just $1 apiece with a minimum of 50. Over 20,000 copies sold already!

The ideas are based on countless family literacy workshops conducted around the U.S. by author-speaker Matthew Gollub. Show Your Child that Reading is Fun....Show Your Child that Reading is Useful....Visit the Library Often—It’s free. These and other literacy practices are described through attractive art-driven text. Humorous comic strips of real life scenarios suggest how to put each tip to use.

Here’s what school and library administrators appreciate most about the booklets:

Easily digested in one reading or school meeting
Speaks to parents of many backgrounds
Multicultural representation
Spanish version not just translated but modified to better resonate with Spanish speakers

Single booklets retail for $2.95, but are just $1 apiece with 50 or more. Spanish and English copies may be combined to reach the bulk order minimum of 50. Some schools buy 500-600 copies to send home with every student. Other schools distribute the booklets at parent meetings, or to incoming kindergarten families each year. Still other schools use Title I funds to provide the booklets to those most in need.

If you wish to invite bilingual author-speaker Matthew Gollub to come and present the tips in person, please inquire about fees and availability by email to mg@matthewgollub.com Gollub is based in the Bay Area of California. When he travels for family literacy events, he also speaks at elementary schools and conferences.
