Thank you so much to @helenhayes.bsky.social for hosting a #WorldBookDay debate in Westminster Hall yesterday! She brilliantly outlined the benefits of reading for pleasure and how it can support bonding and attachment between a child and their caregiver. (1/4)

It's #WorldBookDay, but did you know that reading can make a particular difference to children in kinship care, foster care and adoption? Find out how in our new film #StoriesThatConnectUs, which features the words of real families. Watch now: https://bit.ly/3MKWKtY

It's important to write hand-written letters to your friends when you need to send them something. Ideally while doing a bit. Maybe you're a union soldier, separated from your ladylove. Maybe a hot air balloon operator. We mustn't let the realities of today restrain the nonsense within us.

I learned so much from facilitating @literacy-trust.bsky.social 'Building Vocabulary' training today with a fabulously disparate group of expert delegates, where a/Apple, o/Orange and o/Oyster (one for the London commuters) were referenced. 🙌🏾 #Etymology literacytrust.org.uk/training-and...

There’s a lot going on right now, but remember letters are a quiet and beautiful way to build relationships, and postboxes are the magical portals that help transport them. If you’re feeling a bit like this cat, click on #PostboxSaturday for the purrfect (sorry) antidote. 🥰📮🐱
