In a review of Reading Magic Booklist noted its "cheerful, chatty style that's totally jargon-free" and recommended it for new parents.[1] January Magazine', in its review, wrote: "Fox' book isn't some boring, didactic treatise on how to improve your child's reading skills. In fact, she's not at all fond of the phonics fanatics, and even discourages making your child read aloud to show their progress".[2] Library Journal Review calls it a "rah-rah book on the benefits of reading aloud to children" and "a marginal purchase for public libraries".[3]
Reading Magic has also been reviewed by Publishers Weekly[3] and the School Library Journal.[3]
