We are having a problem encouraging my 5 year old granddaughter to practice her reading at home. Last night she said she doesn't need to read because she wants to be an artist not a librarian! She was progressing very well last year and because of this was advanced to a harder group. Now she refuses to read to Mum or me. Has anyone encountered this problem and have any suggestions as to how we can help her please?

jeanthompson I'm guessing your in America as at 5yrs of age the child would be past pre-school.
She will be 8 now anyway grin
