The Reading Game

• A sure-fire way to get children reading
• Gripping and highly motivating

• For any age from 8 years old

• Use with any books!

• Any number can play


Some children restrict their reading to one genre, or hardly read at all. The Reading Game is the answer to this problem because it introduces a wide range of books in a fun and imaginative way. It is totally flexible - you choose the books according to your children.

You'll find that at the end of a session children are queuing up to borrow books that they would never have dreamt of reading!

"Fast, noisy and fun." TES

"Fantastic" Margaret Drinkwater, School Library Service Manager, Leeds

"All the children’s comments were positive: enjoyable, fun, would like to do it again. This is very successful in introducing children to good books and whetting their appetites to read. I will definitely use it regularly." NATE (National Association for the Teaching of English)
