STORY TIME
From Alice in Wonderland, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe to The Cat in the Hat, books can open up a world of possibilities for all of us.
In words of the great Roald Dahl in Matilda; ‘The books transported her into new worlds and introduced her to amazing people who lived exciting lives.’ Any author will tell you that to become a great writer, you must read.
Reading can open your mind, teach you new things and help you escape into a new world.
But just how important is reading for children?
According to the national charity BookTrust, reading matters because it can have a lifelong positive impact on a child, affecting their health and wellbeing, creativity and educational outcomes.
