READING FOR PLEASURE has such a powerful impact on kids, it should be at the heart of everything you do with them every day. Show how them how much YOU love books. Read books to them, talk about books with them, help them find books to love. It will change their lives! #literacy
Every time you encourage a child to read a book, you will change their lives - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. But child by child, book by book, we can change the world. Children who read become adults who think - and will build a world that’s better for EVERYONE. #literacy
