The idea was so ____7____ that he continued it for the next two years. Many kids would ____8____ a favorite book, settle into the barber chair and read aloud ____9____ Holmes was doing their hair. After the haircut, they’d review the book, from the ____10____ and vocabulary to the themes—just like in school, only more fun.
Holmes, who is married ____11____ two sons, recognizes that not every parent has the time to ____12____ with their kids. So he hopes to offer some ____13____ in this way. And he admits he,____14____, benefits from doing that.
There was a seven-year-old kid who ____15____ stuttered (结巴) over words while reading. He had the boy take the book home and ____16____. When the child came back a few days later, he read it with no problems. That ____17____ Holmes to do more.
Holmes and his family have recently moved to a Chicago suburb. When they get ____18____, he plans to restart his ____19____ as the Storybook Barber. “Today’s world is full of guns and violence,” he says, “The barbershop is a ____20____ place for the kids to come and read books.”
