As schools and libraries lose their funding, literacy services to children and young adults must become more efficient, practical, and effective. This much-needed collection covers all aspects of promoting reading to and with young people, along with models of current practices and inspiration for future developments. It contains vital insight into how young readers think, empowering you to foster literacy while reaching even the most reluctant readers. Full of advice from experts in the field, it will appeal to librarians and students who wish to work in public or school libraries.
