E: 01/06 Win 101 Ways to get your Child to Read Books

Book of the Month competition from ScottishBookTrust.com

Some children need a lot of help if they're ever going to learn to read. But what's the best way to help them? How can your child read if he just doesn't like books? And what if you don't read much yourself?

This book has the answers. With an inspirational introduction by Michael Morpurgo, it combines friendly and helpful advice with real life case studies and celebrity comment.

Covering a wide spectrum of the causes of reading difficulties, such as dyslexia, problems with hearing words, emotional health problems and ADHD, this book also emphasises that these difficulties may not only affect the young. Adults are catered for as well here, whether it is to develop reading in their own children or themselves.

We have 5 copies of 101 Ways to get your Child to Read to give away!

To be in with a chance of winning send your answer to the following question, along with your name and address, to [EMAIL="info@scottishbooktrust.com"]info@scottishbooktrust.com[/EMAIL] with the subject '101 Ways competition':
Q: Who wrote the inspirational introduction to 101 Ways to get your Child to Read?

    Hi everyone, sorry to bump but I think the answer is actually Michael Morpurgo who wrote the introduction (see the book cover and blurb for confirmation).
