Editor's Notes

  1. We have all experienced a time when we were so “into” the book we could almost taste, smell, and feel the physical sensations we would actually have if we were in that situation. We almost get lost in the book and may sometimes be startled if someone interrupts us while reading. In these situations, as you read, you imagine the situation about which you are reading, and you infer things the author has not told you in the text. You infer why things happen, why characters behave the way they do, and how characters are feeling. You enter the world created by the author, and you create images and inferences based on what the author tells you and on your own knowledge and beliefs about that world.
  2. Ellin Keene also shares that, “Images from reading frequently become part of the reader’s writing. Images from a reader’s personal experience frequently become part of his/her comprehension.”
