Forged by Reading: The Power of a Literate Life
Forged by Reading: The Power of a Literate Life
Bestselling authors Kylene Beers and Robert E. Probst explore why independent reading is vital to the intellectual and developmental growth of students as citizens of our world and as architects of the future. Forged by Reading explores historic and timely topics through the context of literacy--literacy being the gateway to power and privilege--while serving as nothing short of a call to action. One that reminds educators of their critical hand in empowering readers to think, to seek curiosity and skepticism, to shape themselves and their ideas through evidence and reason, vision and imagination, and in doing so to forge themselves and our world through reading.

"This book will open the door to an understanding of literacy like no other. But, it's not a how-to-use-literature-to-empower-our-kids-book. It's a why-haven't-we book. It's a we-must book. Forged by Reading is filled with hard truths, and the inspiration needed to walk towards a new world--one where relevant reading rules. So, put your walking shoes on, get ready for the hard, necessary work, and let Kylene and Bob show us the way." --Kwame Alexander, poet, educator, and New York Times bestselling author of Light for the World to See: A Thousand Words on Race and Hope "If you haven't read a single Beers & Probst educational bible to date, read Forged by Reading. It's all right here...at the time of American education's greatest need. There may well be no creative power greater than that of language...reading language, writing language, understanding language, embracing language. With Forged by Reading, Kylene and Bob hand us a roadmap to unleashing that power. Read it. Revel in it. Use it." --Chris Crutcher, bestselling author and recipient of the American Library Association Margaret Edwards Award for Lifetime Achieveme
