'This book isn’t just for families that have children who don’t embrace reading with enthusiasm and love, but can help established reading families too.' - Sally, Space On The Bookshelf
'This is ideal for teachers to use as a way of talking with parents about reading for pleasure. It’s a book that lives in that space between education in school and education at home. A thousand times better than those books of worksheets telling you “How to pass Sats” that sit on spinners in newsagents.' - Michael Rosen, The Guardian
