2009 Summer Reading Program
The purpose of No Book Left Unread is to encourage students to read for fun and recreation during the summer months, to encourage self-selected reading without worry about reading levels, Lexiles, or assessment.
Those [students] who live in a print-rich environment did better overall on tests of history and literature, and there was a clear relationship between the amount of reported leisure reading and performance on the literature test. -Stephen Krashen Emeritus Professor of Education, University of Southern California | Our goal was 16,000,000 pages.
