The History behind Shared reading
Don Holdaway
What are big books?
Big books are highly appealing to readers of all ages,
especially very young children.
Features and characteristics of big books that
captivate readers include:
• The overall size being an enlarged version of a book
• Large, bolded print that can be easily read from a distance.
• Large, colorful pictures that are supportive of the story's meaning
• simple text with one or two lines
of print per page.
