Reading for pleasure urgently requires a higher profile to raise attainment and increase childrens engagement as self-motivated and socially interactive readers. Building Communities of Engaged Readers highlights the concept of Reading Teachers who are not only knowledgeable about texts for children, but are aware of their own reading identities and prepared to share their enthusiasm and understanding of what being a reader means. Sharing the processes of reading with young readers is an innovative approach to developing new generations of readers. Examining the interplay between the will and the skill to read, the book distinctively details a reading for pleasure pedagogy and demonstrates that reader engagement is strongly influenced by relationships between children, teachers, families and communities. Importantly it provides compelling evidence that reciprocal reading communities in school encompass: a shared concept of what it means to be a reader in the 21st century; considerable teacher and child knowledge of childrens literature and other texts; pedagogic practices which acknowledge and develop diverse reader identities; spontaneous inside-text talk on the part of all members; a shift in the focus of control and new social spaces that encourage choice and childrens rights as readers. Written by experts in the literacy field and illustrated throughout with examples from the project schools, it is essential reading for all those concerned with improving young peoples enjoyment of and attainment in reading.

"This book is essential reading for all those who have an interest in teaching reading in schools. It should be on all initial teacher education programme reading lists and should be at the centre of professional discussions on how to encourage reading for pleasure in schools. In addition to demonstrating how children can come to recognise the pleasures of reading, there are plenty of issues to debate and mull over. I cannot recommend it enough." - Andrew Lambirth, British Journal of Educational Studies (Vol 63, Issue 2, 2015) "The authors of Building Communities of Engaged Readers formulate an important and empirically valid argument for the significant impact of pedagogical practice and reading repertoires on pupils reading engagement in reading and their academic achievement. It is an important signal for policy makers and practitioners not only in the UK. I highly recommend Building Communities of Engaged Readers not only to those who teach reading in schools, but also to educational policy makers to help them to see reading as multidimensional practice." - Zofia Zasacka, National Library, Poland, International Research Society for Children's Literature
