Nailed it. 👏🏼 to this whole series. I can’t imagine keeping up with my kids’ reading by prereading. I love reading for the first time with my kids! Also, Jonathan Rogers answered a ? about prereading at a homeschool convention: if you’ve been teaching your children the good, beautiful, & true, why are you prereading for them as tweens & teens? Let them practice their own discerning. And right before the convention I had done that (though my kid was 9-10) & he came down & “threw” a book in the library basket bc it was not good, beautiful, & true & he was mad😆
I love that and I completely agree. My kids are very discerning readers and will regularly eschew books that I personally bring into the house after very careful research and consideration. 😅
