The articles in this publication offer ideas for developing enjoyment of reading in children. Among the topics discussed are the following: the need for teachers and parents to build children's self-esteem through increasing their experiences of success, their expectations of success, and the value they place on reading; methods for increasing children's relish for reading by reading aloud to them, giving them time for silent reading, and determining their interests; considerations in using reading games and activities; the use of puppetry, sports literature, and book production to foster an interest in reading; the Reading Academy Program for adults and youths 16 years old and over who need reading assistance and instruction; and workshops that help teachers and parents understand how motivational, attitudinal, and emotional factors can influence reading performance. Descriptions are included of five resources to aid in promoting reading enjoyment. (GW)
