Riassunto

How can a teacher's personal reading enhance teaching in general and teaching reading and language arts specifically? You'll find many answers to this question in this engaging collection of narrative essays written by teachers who participated in a graduate seminar titled "Readers as Teachers and Teachers as Readers" at the University of Georgia. The stories offered by these teachers illustrate how their personal reading lives informed their instruction and vice versa, and reveal important dimensions of teaching reading that do not appear in textbooks. These writings eloquently remind us of why we are teaching reading and the ultimate goal of our instruction - to help students gain a lifelong love of reading. The authors offer personal and often moving perspectives that will help preservice and inservice teachers more fully understand what it means to teach reading.
