After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more actively.One day soon after school had started, I said to them, “Now

25、ding should be and in school so seldom is, an exciting, joyous adventure.
