While the books are a bit above her current reading level, we struggle through and I couldn't be happier.

Minecraft is a game she got into toward the end of August. She loves everything about it as do most kids these days and will spend many of her online hours absorbed in creating in the Minecraft world.
If you have a child who is uninterested in reading find what they are interested in and partner read.

Good luck and keep trying, your child will learn to love reading too!
