So La Tex, Did you start off with your child answering verbally after you read the story?

I like the part about reading 'for comprehension.'

I never really felt comfortable with those little stories/questions at the back. They never felt like they addressed the spirit of the story to me. sigh. It never felt like 'real' reading even if I read silently to myself.

I was just looking at http://reading.ecb.org/
The section on 'inferring' seemed more satisfying because it showed that different inferences were good at answering different questions.
