Funding libraries (including school libraries) properly. This One Weird Trick should be a priority for central government. #GoAllIn #NationalYearofReaading. But for smaller scale stuff, if adults could just stop judging children's reading matter that would be a start. And costs nothing!

We've had a couple of days off recommending books to give you a chance to catch up with reading them! Today we're looking at #poetry books and we might be a tad biased because these are all by some of the brilliant poets we work with.

Wood by @tanyaturnerwriter.bsky.social is a brilliant debut. What an achievement to be shortlisted alongside more traditionally-published (also brilliant) titles. I highly recommend it. #KidLitUK #UKKidLit
