 Jump into pretending May 27, 2004

This book is great for teachers, parents,grandparents and others who enjoy seeing kids learn a new skill. Reader's theater allows them to jump into interpreting a script with a minimum of "baggage." They don't need props or a stage; they just read their parts and learn to become someone else. The author suggests making copies of a script for groups, so it becomes a great activity book for a get together of kids. The kids in the book are naughty and nice, thoughtful and not. The young readers learn about human nature, conflict resolution, and how to cope with parents, while having fun pretending. Great fun!

This book features abundant humor that naturally appeals to kids, yet tickles adults, too. The plays are suitable for simply reading aloud or full dramatic performances and are "just right" in length - long enough to be make a point and brief enough to capture attention. I'd recommend this book for a variety of settings, including classroom, home, and youth groups. Kids will love it!
 Kids love this book of plays May 26, 2004

I bought this book for my daughter's fourth grade class, and her teacher had them perform several of the readers' theatre plays. The students had great fun, enjoyed the humor, and learned several lessons about dealing with not-so-fun situations. Diana Jenkins is a master when it comes to writing about and relating to kids. I highly recommend this title for teachers and parents who want to make reading/acting fun for upper-elementary/middle school students.
