"Reading helps kids fly
The State Library of Western Australia believes that literacy transforms lives. Through Better Beginnings, we want every child to have the wonderful and very important experience of sharing books and stories with the adults in their life right from the time they are born. Better Beginnings supports parents in reading to children so that they build the early literacy skills they need to become good readers and succeed at school." Delete the scoop?

Great advocacy for school libraries!
From the text:
"First the basics. Number one: the Internet is a swamp of contradictory shit, advertising, and ‘ask anything’ forums with spectacularly misleading information. Much fiction is dressed up as fact. Teachers (remember I was one for eight years) spend half their time teaching pupils how to find reliable sources online (which, to be fair, is a vital life skill), but providing them with quality non-fiction books would have probably taught them more about the subject they were researching. Number two: librarians are experts."
