Kenji's Cards

1Second, a reading nook gives you a quiet place away from the noisy TV. In a quiet spot, you can hear the story in your head instead of the cartoons in the next room.

2Have you ever curled up in a cozy corner with a good book? A reading nook is a small, comfy spot at home that is just for reading. It might have a soft rug, a few pillows, a lamp, and a basket of books.

3First, a soft, cozy spot makes kids want to read more. When a place feels snug and warm, you want to stay there and turn just one more page.

4I think every home should have a reading nook. It does not have to be big or fancy to be special.

5Third, the whole family can share the nook and read together. A parent can read aloud, or a big sister can help a little brother sound out new words.

The numbers next to the cards show the mixed-up order. Card 1 is the first card above.
