It should take a child a minute or two to fill out brief information on the reading log, possibly such as: the title of the book, the time spent reading and maybe a very short comment on the book.

As a teacher, I had my students keep a reading log of what they read in class and home, I cannot tell you how many times I had a child go back into their reading log to find a title of a book they loved or they looked back to see what comments they wrote about the book. Plus it was a great way for the kids to see on paper if they were putting enough time into reading or if they needed to try and read a little more. Most of the kids really liked having their reading log once they got into a habit of using it.
