Empower your students and their reading experience by focusing on your physical classroom environment
Create and maintain an enticing, well-organized, easy-to-use classroom library;

Guide students to further develop their own reading identity to cement them as life-long, invested readers.

"Passionate Readers is the perfect title for this helpful book. Pernille manages to teach us how to harness true passion in ways that will transform the readers in our classrooms. It is no small feat to take such large and lofty goals and make them tangible and real for all educators and students, and yet that is what this books offers, with heart and style to boot."--Kate Roberts, National Literacy Consultant, Author, and Speaker
"A good professional text is a forever resource. We go back to it time and time again for that just-right lesson or chapter we need to fuel our craft. Passionate Readers moves like that novel you can't put down. Tucked in between the narrative of Pernille's five keys and tireless risk-taking in her passionate reading environment are the candid voices of the kids speaking their truths, shining a light on reading identity. Make room for a new forever resource."
--Sara K. Ahmed, Literacy Coach & Consultant-in-Residence, NIST International School, Thailand
"In this framework Ripp creates a functional book that teachers can pick up and read cover to cover, or dive into the section that they need first. With all the demands on our time, in addition to the information teachers will appreciate the functionality of the book's set-up."
--Claire Stein, Administrator in Racine, WI, Middleweb
