I'm so weary of saying this ... Reading for pleasure is a magic bullet for resilience and happiness. Happiness is not a mood. It's an ability that has to be fed and watered. We are napalming the seedlings of our children's happiness. And no one is talking about it.
⏰ Wake-up call! ⏰ 2023 shows the lowest levels of reading enjoyment since our records began. We need urgent action to ensure children have the skills they need. Read the research: literacytrust.org.uk/researc…
