@juliangough.bsky.social so on it! We should talk more about the 'dead zone of children's publishling'! I have lost count how many times these books have rescued a child's reading momentum - a vital principle in creating volitional readers - it gets overlooked too often.

Itโ€™s heartbreaking so few children read for pleasure โ€“ and sad to know the reasons why | Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett When people face financial pressure and child poverty is so high, itโ€™s hard to prioritise family reading, says Guardian columnist Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

To prevent decline of reading for pleasure in our children, every school should have at its heart a library with librarian so that ALL children can choose books to embed reading motivation. Children need daily exposure to books to create volitional readers.
