Reading for pleasure is one of the strongest predictors of a child’s future success. But children's reading is in crisis.
We know what works. The #SummerReadingChallenge builds skills, confidence & joy.

Do you use your library? My discussion on BBC about how libraries provide value for money and also environmental benefits due to books being used again and again.
As former @CILIPinfo libraries champion & current @readingagency charity ambassador, I will always use my voice to speak up for libraries.
