So always make time to share books with kids, and help them find books to love. Make reading central to everything you do. It will change their lives forever! #literacy 1045724839
The_bookishmum @the-bookishmun.bsky.social · 19/01/2025I’m not 100% sure this book is my sense of humour. I’m nearly finished with it, there are moments that almost make it read like a thriller told from the villains pov. 140
