As a father of a 6 year old voracious reader, I agree. He is devouring books faster than I can find them.
You expose them to lot of different books and then sit back and observe which one they pick up again and again to read. Talk to them about what they liked about the book, to discover what actually interests them.
Initially I tried to influence the books he would read, but after a while he refused to read them (he would read them in his own time). So now I just let him be and just track what interests him and periodically introduce him to new stuff.
- misev 9y agoTake him to the library and let him roam around and pick whatever he likes. I used to do this at the age of 9-10-11: I would go to the library once a week, pick about 5-6 books and read them all by the next week. Wish I had discovered the library when I was 6 :)
