Encouraging the love of reading is a vitally important priority that has positive consequences for students' literacy growth, both now and in the future. Children need daily, in-school opportunities to enjoy reading and become immersed in reading as a lifetime activity. Although a wide variety of considerations are useful for promoting the reading habit, the ingredients suggested here are essential. A well-stocked classroom library, interactive read-alouds, and actual reading and related sharing are especially effective when they are used in concert, every day, by caring teachers and responsive learners. Teachers and administrators who embrace this instructional direction will help develop future generations of citizens who not only are able to read, but also want to read. This article discusses ways on how to promote the love of reading, which can help children develop the habit of reading.
