Every secondary school in Scotland can now get an edition of Story Deck, our new card game tool for starting conversations about books. We travelled to Forfar Academy Library to find out how Story Deck has helped to spark a love of reading in pupils there. readingschools.scot/story-deck

Happy #WorldBookDay everyone! The books we love when we're young are the ones that make us readers, and change our lives FOREVER. So whatever else you do, please never stop reading books with kids, and encouraging them to read. There is nothing more important! #WorldBookDay2025

Why not join me this Saturday afternoon, discovering the women's history of the new town for 2 hours? From artists, to fighters for rights, to one who did an amazing thing to help but for the wrong reasons, there is much to find out! eventbrite.co.uk/e/womens-histo…
