Description Step One: Find a story. ( A good one. ) Step Two: Find a reading buddy. ( Someone nice. ) Step Three: Find a reading spot. ( Couches are cozy. ) Now: Begin. Accomplished storytellers Kate Messner and Mark Siegel chronicle the process of becoming a reader: from pulling a book off the shelf and finding someone with whom to share a story, to reading aloud, predicting what will happen, and--finally--coming to The End . This picture book playfully and movingly illustrates the idea that the reader who discovers the love of reading finds, at the end, the beginning. This title would make a perfect mentor text for launching a Reading and Writing Workshop.
