[quote=Anonymous]My DS is in MS-- he read some, but not as much as I would like. I was pretty happy with some of the books he selected- 1. Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer 2. The Curious Incident of the Dog in Nighttime 3. Jurassic Park 4. The Uglies series It was a good combination of adventure, non-fiction, scifi. The way to get him to read was to give him total control over his choices but to structure screen-free time for reading. That's probably harder the older they get. It's already a challenge at home. I think teens are like us- they enjoy a variety of reading. Right now, DS picked up something easy and fun, the same way I go for a mystery or romance after I've read something "serious." [/quote]
