Why Students Should Choose Their Own Books

According to the book, Reading in the Wild, by Donalyn Miller:

It is important for students to self-select their own reading material because it:


  • Allows students to value their decision-making ability
  • Fosters their capacity to choose appropriate literature
  • Gives them confidence and a feeling of ownership
  • Improves reading achievement
  • Encourages them in becoming lifelong readers
