Abstract

Currently one of the main challenges in the work of promoting reading in schools is the cultivation of children's enjoyment of reading. We present a unique case study in a school reading club in Spain that has managed to achieve that goal and has received a very positive assessment from participants. The reasons for its success mainly reside in four key areas: planning, dialogic reading, critical thinking and values education.
