Youth Readers Bill of Rights
We believe that youth readers have the right to
- Be read to from birth
- Never be too old to be read aloud to
- Not be defined by their reading level
- Choose their own books (Every book its reader. Every reader their book.)
- Read for fun
- Read books that are too hard or too easy but look really good
- Re-read books
- Not finish books that they don’t like*
*unless the book was assigned for school
Free recreational reading is how our youth develop a life-long love of reading.
