Last month our family attended a Reading Jamboree at Sinclair Community College. While we were there, I picked up a paper entitled "Web Sites to Encourage and Enhance Reading," compiled by Julia L. Hall, Educational Technology Services, Dayton Public Schools. I'm reproducing the list below:- International Children's Digital Library
- Free books available online

- PBS Kids Stories
- Online books. Some books have Spanish words. Children can click on the book and read it themselves or click on the cow and have the book read to them. Children can click on any word they don't know to have it read to them.
