#AllReadingIsGoodReading

I've seen, heard, and read adults shaming other adults for what they've chosen to read, because of content or format or perceived quality, or how often they read.

Why do this? What does it accomplish? For adults as well as kids, #AllReadingIsGoodReading, so #LetThemRead!

2/4

Yes, And - Don't tease, harass, or belittle others (children, adults, or anywhere in between) for their reading choices - quantity, quality, frequency, content, or format. #EndLiteracyShaming #AllReadingIsRealReading #AllReadingIsGoodReading

#AllReadingIsGoodReading! Let's #EndLiteracyShaming between professionals as well as for kids! Read what you want to read, when you want to read it - there aren't any rules! (And if there are, we need to chuck 'em out!)

YES! All reading is good reading! Get out of kids' way and let them just enjoy the process of reading - that will make them want to read more frequently, and more widely, and more deeply!

When Kids Say ‘I’m not a reader’: How Librarians Can Disrupt Traumatic Reading Practices - MindShift Students can get turned off to reading because of traumatic experiences, like shaming one's reading choices or high-stakes testing. Teacher-librarians offer advice on how to cultivate better reading experiences for kids.

We have to keep reminding folks that we need to #StopLiteracyShaming if we want kids to read.
