Something quite magical went on in the book shop over the school holidays. Our three Boys Reading to Boys sessions attracted more than 70 kids willing to share their love of books. We are so grateful to the brave kids who read, and those who stepped outside of their comfort zone to open a book with someone new to them. THIS is the magic of reading. 💜💜💜

Thanks to for reading to us, and to for their generous donations of free books. And lastly to whose support through their Children’s Grant makes things like this possible. 💜💜

It’s happening! Book your little people in now for the upcoming winter holidays. Three sessions, just one rule: we’re going to be kind listeners and readers. We’d love to see your boys sharing whatever reading interests them, or we can help spark something new. Drop in for ten minutes or stay for the whole 90. Free, just let us know via the link that you’re coming so we can plan space!
