Sad to hear the news today of the passing of Shirley Hughes. Her books have given generations so much joy through reading and being read to. One of my favourite books as a child (and still) was Dogger.

Some more... :) "Before, I didn't really like reading, but then when the Reading Road Maps came out I started to like it even more" "It was helpful because I would know how difficult it was so I knew what to pick" #readingforpleasure

Most importantly some quotes from children who have taken part! "In my opinion it would be the types of books they choose, like books they know kids would enjoy." (motivated reader Yr 6) #readingforpleasure

Some more quotes from teachers - "It has invigorated the buzz around reading, and they loved seeing who had the book they wanted next and keeping track of how many they'd read." #readingforpleasure
From the @OpenUniversity report into the Reading Road Map - Teachers - "Great variety and use of genres to widen childrens reading" "Encouraging children to diversify their book choices - great!" "I particularly like that they are new novels that I might not have found my self"
