Testimonials: Reading Buddies

I was coaching a fifth grader who didn’t really like to read before 100 Book Challenge. As her coach I saw that she was getting excited about the book she was reading and asking a lot of questions like how a book can be fiction if it really has a lot of true ‘stuff’ in it? It was the first time she was asking questions and questions that showed she was thinking about what she was reading.
