What makes a great family read-aloud novel?<\/p>\n

“You’re looking for something that will appeal to a range of ages, and something that will appeal to the adults as much as it will to the children,” says Megan Daley, award-winning teacher-librarian and co-host of the Your Kid’s Next Read podcast. “So you want something that can cover and capture a wide reading span, and I’m often looking for something at the feelgood end of the spectrum.”<\/p>\n

As Megan says, if you can get your kids to sit down to listen to a family read-aloud, you want the experience to be a time of warmth and nurturing and togetherness, so perhaps leave the more dramatic or ‘thematic’ books for reading specifically with an older child.<\/p>\n

Megan also suggests looking for some humour, and for characters who are a little bit older than the children being read to. “I find children like to listen to stories about older kids,” she says. “It gives them something to look forward to, and helps them to navigate the next few years in their own lives.”<\/p>\n

My own criteria include chapters of manageable lengths (so that if you do decide to read ‘just one more’ you’re not their until midnight) and a ‘voice’ that sings with wry humour and inside jokes \u2013 I love John Flanagan’s Ranger Apprentice<\/a><\/strong> series for this reason, and it’s something that was always in the back of my mind when I was writing The Mapmaker Chronicles<\/strong><\/a> series.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three reasons to try a family read-aloud novel<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2022 Role modelling<\/strong>: In our recent podcast discussion ‘Real Talk About Literacy and Literature<\/a><\/strong>‘, Megan and I emphasised the importance of role modelling reading at home for children who may be losing interest in books. A ‘family book’ is a great way to make reading a part of family life.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Elevating comprehension:<\/strong> In reading together, you can introduce books \u2013 some of the classics perhaps \u2013 well before a child’s individual reading age, and by discussing the way the story plays out, you’re building comprehension in a natural way.<\/p>\n

\u2022 It’s actually just fun<\/strong>: Reading books together allows the whole family to embrace a great story. It doesn’t have to be a chore \u2013 but it does have to be a priority. Scheduling in a regular 20 minutes for a chapter or two is a good way to put reading back on the table at your place.<\/p>\n
