My child doesn't want to read

Sometimes a child hasn't found the right story yet. Other times, reading is tiring or difficult. Let's understand what's getting in the way and choose where to start.

We haven't found a subject that interests them.

Motivation

Maybe the right story hasn't crossed their path yet. We start from what they are passionate about outside of books and go from there.

What to try

  • Start from their interests outside of books: animals, games, sports, science.
  • Let them choose for themselves from 3 options you have prepared.
  • Use the Book Finder to explore new interests.
