Super session with Janice Hallett FourbearsBooks today. Reading Children’s Book Group were delighted to host Janice’s inaugural presentation of #ABoxFullOfMurders PuffinBooks. We learnt a new word & chose which tent would best suit each of us. All enjoyed. #epistolary #mystery

A task to send home to encourage reading over the summer. The children could bring it back completed in the autumn to discuss the books that they have read. literacyshedplus.com/en-gb/resource…

Inspired by #ParisCat by Dianne Hofmeyr & Piet Grobler Tiny Owl Publishing, our 5-8s designed new outfits for the cat. The children shared a great selection of their own favourite books about cats - which we’ll soon be sharing with our members alongside our Feline Friends booklist.

I totally support the National Year Of Reading. We desperately need a culture of reading for pleasure to replace the culture of constant tests in schools, backed by proper government funding. And we need STORYTIME to be part of the school day, every day! (Art chris riddell)

READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. We need to help every single child enjoy all its lifelong benefits. That's why I'm excited to see the National Literacy Trust National Year Of Reading - and will support it in every way I can!
