Sophia’ Diary recommends Book Club Buddies® – an online interactive book club specifically aimed at primary school children in order to ignite their passion for reading, whilst also improving their literacy skills.
The book clubs provide an opportunity for children to have fun exploring, discussing and reading a complete book within a small group. These fun group discussions will be guided by a teacher and are run weekly over 5 weeks, allowing the children to complete independent reading between sessions. It is an opportunity for your child to read for pleasure in a small, safe and informal setting so that they learn to read their own enjoyment, which in turn allows them to grow and develop socially, mentally and academically.They have had amazing feedback with 5 star Google reviews and over 80% of children re booking onto another book club.
Literary Legend Michael Rosen wrote “Book Club Buddies® sounds like a great idea to me. Reading loads of books on all sorts of things, written in all sorts of different ways, is a great way to be in this world. It helps us think, care about others, know about what’s going on, how people tick, and how to have fun. Book Club Buddies® is a terrific route to getting into the world of books. Have a great time.”
