A Reading Specialist Introduces a Charming Children's Reader

Motorcycle Matt, a new book by retired reading teacher Phyllis E. Andrews tells an inspiring story that helps children learn and practice new vocabulary.

Naples, FL (PRWEB) May 6, 2007 -- Motorcycle Matt, by former reading instructor Phyllis E. Andrews, tells the story of a young boy who is so motivated to learn to read that he tackles a difficult book about motorcycles. Charmingly told, Motorcycle Matt is designed to give success to early readers.

What inspires children to read? Usually, according to retired reading specialist and author Phyllis E. Andrews, it is when children are reading about something they love. Their interest perks and they are more willing to read material that would otherwise be too difficult for them. That's the idea behind Andrews' sparkling children's book, Motorcycle Matt.

As a long-time reading teacher, one of Andrews' strengths was to find appropriate books for her students. Andrews feels it is sometimes difficult but very important to find appropriate books for children at their reading and interest level.

Andrews' book is based on her experiences with one reluctant reader in particular. Knowing that he loved motorcycles, she created the story of another boy who also loved bikes, and who discovered that reading could help him learn much more about his favorite subject. To help ensure success, Andrews' book uses many of the first words children learn as they begin reading. Motorcycle Matt is a warm, inviting story that is guaranteed to help children stretch their abilities. Enchanting and educational, this wonderful book is sure to be a treasured edition to any home or school library.
