Dr. Michael Milone introduced the concept at the annual conference of the International Reading Association in Phoenix in 2009, where teachers received it enthusiastically.
The PDF file contains a daily reading calendar based on the high-interest, low readability book Throwing the Game, from the series entitled The Fixers.
The Fixers is about a former computer hacker named Shane and his friend Lena, a former gang member, who now put their unique skills to good use around town whenever a problematic situation needs "fixing."
The Fixers is written at a 1st grade readability level and is recommended for ages 14 and up.
Previous semester's books can be downloaded from The Reading Calendar.
