Reading for the Future

RFF's site is prefaced with this quote: "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle

Reading for the Future Encouraging literacy through Speculative Fiction A teachers and librarian resource site

The enthusiasm and purpose of this group -to turn young people on to reading and thinking by introducing them to and supporting their reading of speculative fiction, is a compelling force for change.

This group is working toward introducing more speculative fiction to the popular accelerated reader program, but there is much more here than that: SF bibliographies, resources, events, and more. Great if you are a children's, teen, or school librarian -Great if you are a K-12 teacher -Great if you are parent who wants to turn your child on to reading, great if you are a SF enthusiast like me, who believes that sharing the love of ideas happens when you read books like these.
