A.C.
My daughter is 8 and can read very well but I have her in tutoring for reading. I find that she reads books she is intersted in reading. I fought her on reading books I thought would be interesting, but she has her own ideas. Even if you may think she should be reading intersting books for her age, find out what she likes. My daughter likes animails, bugs, fairy books. I would even go as far as finding animal books that looked cool to me, but she was not interested. She wants to read easy books and I never liked that because of her age. Since I have backed off adn stopped pushing her, she has taken over. She reads all kinds of books. Sometimes kids just want to do the opposite of what you want. Seems when I backed off, she took off. Hope that/this helps.
