Objective : How to make children read ?
In French we use the word “animation”. This word is especially relevant because is means “put warmth, activity and life in something”. It is a way to let the books alive and to see them in another way. The main problem for children now days is that they don’t like and don’t know what to read. They ignore all the potential that books could bring. We need to make them understand that a book is a source of warmth, imagination and window on the world not only paper pages in a store.
It is a cultural mediation between books and children (teens and babies).
Shafiya from Madurai (India) asks :
Now I want all the children to read well. But some of the students(2/3) not at all reading.
They think that library hour is meant for talking (leisure time).I want them to realise that it is to improve themselves.
