Help K-5 students experience the magic of reading by sparking amazement, wonder, and excitement through the art of the read aloud

It is not news to educators that kids have trouble paying attention. The allure and interactivity offered in televisions, tablets, and video games are tough to match. Consequently, reading scores have plummeted and educators say the joy has been sucked out of teaching. Rock Your Read Aloud brings back the joy and helps you create a read aloud experience that will have even the most reluctant of K-5 readers begging for just one more story.

A must read for every current or aspiring elementary teacher, librarian, and administrator, this book shows you why read alouds are critical to literacy education in today's media-saturated world. Inside, you'll find techniques for turning reading scores around in early elementary classrooms, so you can rediscover how rewarding teaching can be when students are engaged and learning. You can even link this book to the Novel Effect app to access a unique soundscape that will give you a taste of just how fun reading can be.



Discover how reading aloud to kids can improve reading scores and outcomes
Get tips for making your read alouds magical and igniting students' love of books
Motivate struggling readers by creating a culture of reading together
Learn about proven techniques like buddy reading and community read alouds

K-5 teachers, parents, administrators, librarians, and reading interventionists will gain insight and inspiration as Rock Your Read Aloud shows how to cut through the distraction and make reading fun again.

Matthew and Melissa Hammersley are partners in both work as the founders of Novel Effect and in life with two little ones Max and Willa. They’ve spent the last 10 years immersing themselves in read-alouds at home and in the classroom. They’ve appeared on the hit TV show Shark Tank and reached millions of kids, teachers, and parents in pursuit of their mission: to make reading together magical.
