Host a Reading for Our Lives Book Club
When I wrote Reading for Our Lives, I hoped it would prompt deep individual reflection within readers and also catalyze discussion–and action–among them.
To help, I offer this guide to the book’s key ideas, themes, and arguments, along with open-ended questions to ponder. May this exploration of the chapters’ opening quotes, startling statistics, personal stories, historical insights, and practical recommendations park memorable conversation.
Email me at hello@mayasmart.com with the subject line “book discussion” to let me know which questions and chapters gave you the most to think and talk about.
Thank you so much for your support of Reading for Our Lives! Since you read the book and believe in the power of parents to influence kids’ literacy trajectories, please leave a review on Amazon or the bookseller of your choice to share your thoughts.
Reader reviews are critical for raising the book’s visibility on bookseller websites. Plus, once prospective readers find the book, reader reviews can assure them that the content is the right fit for them and worth buying. It takes just a minute to leave a one- or two-sentence review and it would make a huge difference for Reading for Our Lives.
With Appreciation,
Maya
