Abstract: The subject of the 1995 Texas Reading Club is the planet Earth, planets in the heavens, worlds to explore in the mind, and the many worlds in literature. The goals of this manual are: (1) to provide a reading club that explores a variety of book-based media in order to help children and their caretakers learn the importance of reading and to gain a love of stories, information, and language; (2) present a means by which caretakers and older siblings may take an active part in a child's reading club experience; (3) provide a practical and usable manual which library staff and volunteers may use in its entirety or to build on ideas of their own; (4) provide a manual that is flexible in scope and presentation; and (5) provide programs that promote reading on the individual, as well as the family, level. The manual is primarily designed to provide a variety of ideas, books, audiovisual material, and activities which can be shared at the library or at home as a family. Each program contains material for one hour of programming. Library programs targeted for the toddler and preschooler provide lists of books to share, fingerplays and action rhymes, and flannel board stories and patterns. School-age targeted programs provide lists of books to share, booktalks, read aloud book excerpts, interactive stories, interesting facts, songs, poems, jokes, etc. Library activities for all ages are combined but indicate appropriate age level or suggest changes to make the activity more age-appropriate. These activities include: recommended audiovisual materials; puppet shows; craft ideas; small and large group activities; and handouts. Family fun programs are presented in a one-page format the can be copied for distribution to participating families. This format consists of recommended books for all age levels, family fun ideas, family film recommendations related to the theme, and activities and crafts for the entire family. Contains sample forms and letters; a list of approximately 300 recommended books; a list of six recommended book series; a 48-item source bibliography; a list of 84 audiovisual resources; and clipart.
