On this International Day Of Children's Books,
I want to share 10 strengths reading builds in children.
1. Children who read become great Storytellers. Stories rule our world.
2. Children who read are knowledgeable about many interesting things and this builds their confidence
Curl up together with A Good Night’s Sleep and Absolutely Fine, plus two hot chocolate spoons.

No, Jonathan the tortoise is not dead despite claims that the world's oldest land animal had died at the age of 193.
A spokesperson for the St Helena government confirmed to Guinness World Records that Jonathan is "alive and well".
Every child deserves a story to grow with. 📚✨
This International Children's Books Day, I'm reminded why I do what I do—so kids everywhere can see themselves as heroes, adventurers, and magic-makers in the stories they read.

"I do still like fairytales very much... I read them as a kind of poetry."

What books did you read when you were younger?
LibraryThing wishes our members a Happy International Children's Book Day! Chosen by IBBY (the International Board on Books for Young People) in honor of Hans Christian Andersen's birthday, this is a day to celebrate books for children. #InternationalChildrensBookDay
Today is #InternationalChildrensBookDay, celebrating the magic of stories and the joy of reading.
From first words to wild adventures, stories shape how children learn, dream and grow. A childhood full of stories starts with Storytime. Read one. Share one. Love one.

A fitting remark by #SirTerryPratchett on the perceived difference between writing for children versus writing for adults.
“One group is concerned with the major problems facing mankind. Questions of loyalty and belief and heroism and the really serious things that involve us as a species.
And the others we call Adults.”
