Presents evidence from the W. H. Smith Children's Reading Choices Project research in order to examine the relationship between achievement in English and the reading habits of 10- to 14-year-old children. Argues for the importance of recognizing and respecting the range of reading children engage in, and the popular reading cultures in which they live. (SG)
