  • This idea is featured in the current copy of Reading Today. Every person in the school is invited to read the same book. How can this be done? Select a book with wide appeal written at the level of the median grade in the school. The book is read aloud to students in younger grades. The book selected in the Reading Today article is James and the Giant Peach (Dahl, 1961). During the reading of the book, students are engaged in discussions, performances, and a plethora of book related activities. I know schools that make a "One Book, One School" selection every year. You'll need as many copies of the book as you can get your hands on. Get extra copies of other books by the same author, too. What a great way to build community!
