The document describes a study that examined the effects of a Book Buddies program on students' attitudes about reading. In the program, older 2nd grade students read books to younger kindergarten and 1st grade students in 20 minute sessions over 3 weeks. Students completed a reading attitude survey before and after. The study found no significant differences in reading attitude scores before and after across all students, or between the older and younger students specifically. The researchers concluded that while the program did not improve attitudes, it also did not negatively impact them. Limitations of the small sample size and number of sessions were noted for future research.
