Jim Trelease Quotes

No player in the NBA was born wanting to play basketball. The desire to play ball or to read must be planted. The last 25 years of research show that reading aloud to a child is the oldest, cheapest and must successful method of instilling that desire. Shooting baskets with a child creates a basketball player; reading to a child creates a reader Picture Quote #1

Each day millions of children arrive in American classrooms in search of more than reading and math skills. They are looking for a light in the darkness of their lives, a Good Samaritan who will stop and bandage a bruised heart or ego Picture Quote #1

Students who read the most also read the best, achieve the most, and stay in school the longest. Conversely, those who don’t read much cannot get better at it Picture Quote #1

Story is the vehicle we use to make sense of our lives in a world that often defies logic Picture Quote #1

The more you read, the better you get, the more better you get, the more you like it; and the more you like it, the more you do it Picture Quote #1

A nation that does not read much does not know much. And a nation that does not know much is more likely to make poor choices in the home, the marketplace, the jury box, and the voting booth. And those decisions ultimately affect the entire nation... the literate and illiterate Picture Quote #1

What we teach children to love and desire will always outweigh what we make them learn Picture Quote #1

Students who read the most also read the best, achieve the most, and stay in school the longest. Conversely, those who don’t read much cannot get better at it Picture Quote #1

You became a reader because you saw and heard someone you admired enjoying the experience, someone led you to the world of books even before you could read, let you taste the magic of stories, took you to the library, and allowed you to stay up later at night to read in bed Picture Quote #1

If you don’t read much, you really don’t know much. You’re dangerous Picture Quote #1
