Childhood literacy isn't always a straightforward thing, and the effects of falling behind in reading can be far-reaching. In this episode, we talk to Rachael Francis about MYReaders, an organisation that aims to provide sustainable reading programmes and develop effective, relevant resources to help children learn to read. We also talk about Rachael's own path to becoming a reader, and the role that parents need to play. And then in Footnotes, we talk about how we learned to love reading.
