Experts urge linguistic diversity at heart of National Year of Reading
Original: National Year of Reading: linguistic diversity should be central to reading for pleasure intiatives by Holly Joseph, Emm
Academics Holly Joseph, Emma Page and Sophie Heywood argue that linguistic diversity should be central to the National Year of Reading and its reading-for-pleasure initiatives. Writing about books in different languages, they say such books do more than support language learning: they connect families, amplify diverse voices and make reading more inclusive for multilingual communities.
Why now: The National Year of Reading has sparked debate about how reading campaigns can better reflect multilingual communities.
