Letting Students Choose their own books

Thank you Heather for your posting. I encourage everyone to read, The Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller. She recently presided over a book talk on the English Companion blog moderated by Jim Burke.
I've been following Ms. Miller's passion for adolescent reading and her ability to get students to read for a few years on her Teacher magazing blog, but this book is a joy to read, because she goes into depth about how she does her work. I highly recommend it!
