how to read literature like a professor for kids. this book was ok

Better Than the one for adults. My daughter was assigned How to Read Literature Like a Professor for high school summer reading in her IB program. I bought the e-book and said I'd read it, too. After all, I'm a librarian with 2 master's degrees... I didn't make it. It was so dull and referenced many books I'd never read, much less that a teen would have read. My daughter finished it, but hated it. This one isn't really for kids--it's for teens. It does go off on books kids won't have read, but there are lots they will. I wish this had been assigned instead. Still a slow read, but at least relatable.

Great,. I have read the adult version of this book and I love it, but this book I think it is better suited for teens not kids, because of some of the book discussed in here were more likely to be read in high school. I did appreciate the analysis on well know books by kids like Charlie and Chocolate Factory, The Grinch and Harry Potter, those were great but books like the Iliad, I don’t remember having read those in the 8 grade…anyhow I love books that explain something and if is done by an expert, even better.
