My Child Believes Reading Is Not for Them is a 4-week, compassion-first plan for parents and teachers supporting a child who has emotionally checked out of reading the child who deflects, avoids, jokes their way out of reading time, or flatly says they are bad at it. This is not a phonics workbook. It is a confidence-rebuilding system grounded in both the Science of Reading and how children form (and unform) beliefs about themselves, built around small, deliberately engineered wins rather than pressure, correction, or pep talks that do not land.
What's inside:
- A 4-week plan focused specifically on rebuilding belief and motivation, not just closing a skill gap
- A framework for identifying exactly where reading-related shame or avoidance took root
- Word-for-word scripts for what to say — and what never to say — immediately after a reading struggle
- A method for engineering small, visible, undeniable wins that a discouraged child cannot dismiss or downplay
- Specific strategies for the child who deflects with humor, the child who shuts down silently, and the child who has started avoiding books altogether
- Guidance for both one-on-one home settings and group classroom settings, including how to rebuild confidence without singling a child out in front of peers
- Parents of a child who has said, in some form, "I'm not good at reading" or "I hate reading" and has started avoiding it
- K–3 and upper elementary teachers supporting a reluctant or shut-down reader inside a full classroom
- Reading interventionists and resource teachers whose students have skill gaps tangled up with motivation and self-esteem
- School counselors and learning support staff addressing the emotional side of a reading struggle
- Tutors meeting a child who has already developed negative associations with reading before the first session begins
- Anyone who has searched "child hates reading," "reluctant reader strategies," or "how to build reading confidence in kids"
Written by Anju Singh, M.Sc., B.Sc., B.Ed., PBDE — a Canadian educator with more than twenty years of classroom experience and deep specialization in the Science of Reading.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
