Teacher educators need to identify course pedagogy to improve instructional use of reading. Thus, the purpose of this study was to describe the favorite reading experiences of 82 secondary preservice teachers of diverse subject areas through their drawings and words. Another purpose was to report their reflections regarding the implications of this experience specifically, and the potential and possibilities for the inclusion of reading in their future instruction in general. Preservice teachers believed that reading needed to be relevant, moving, and relaxing. They wished to share their reading with future students, thought that choice was important, and hoped to promote enjoyment of reading. They felt that they needed to offer a variety of reading and use teaching strategies that would motivate their students to want to read. Preservice teachers realized that a teacher's positive attitude and effort to include reading was essential. They planned to have a classroom library. (Contains 2 figures.)
