The Family Reading Circle is a read-aloud programme designed to bring books alive for children – cultivating a love for reading while strengthening language, comprehension, and emotional skills. It provides an avenue for parents and caregivers to encourage their children (seven years and under) to read. It is the first step on the path to making children lifelong readers one book, one child at a time.
