How to Hook a Reluctant Reader

  • City Gallery Wellington Wellington, Wellington, 6011 New Zealand (map)

What can we offer reluctant readers? How can parents and caregivers support a lifelong interest in books and reading for pleasure? Join co-editors of Annual Ink, Kate De Goldi and Susan Paris, with Verb's Founder Claire Mabey, for a discussion about the breadth of literary opportunity for young readers. They will share examples of different kinds of literary forms, from comics, to essays, to short stories and novels. Come with your questions. Spot prize giveaways to take home to your young readers, too.

This event is part of our super fun family day programme full of multi-lingual bookish good times and activities! See the full programme here.
