It seems to me that we often fall into the trap of viewing readers as an added extra in English language teaching, when in fact readers can offer so much more and be an integral part of a young learner’s English learning journey.

They support all of the classroom and coursework learning, and extend that learning by presenting the vocabulary and language in multiple scenarios.
