Ep 19: Lorraine Sithole & Paige Nick – Beyond the book: The magic of reading together

What happens when reading becomes something we do together? In this episode of Thekgang Talking, Lorraine speaks to Paige about the experience of shared reading and the ways books can create opportunities for connection, conversation and discovery. Beyond the Book: The Magic of Reading Together considers what happens around a book as much as what happens inside it. Reading together can create moments of interaction between children and adults, encourage curiosity and make books part of everyday relationships and experiences. This is a conversation about the social experience of reading and the simple but powerful idea that sometimes a book becomes more meaningful when we experience it together.
