CarlOnTV.com: Book Reviews with Character

Getting children involved and engaged with the wonder of reading is something we're particularly passionate about at The Reader Organisation, and we're reaching young people with literature in many ways - from holding weekly Magical Storytime song and story sessions for under 5's in Liverpool to fuelling kids' creativity and imagination in The Peculiar Pop-Up Story Shop; reading in schools and one-on-one on a weekly basis with young people and compiling an enchanting read-aloud anthology full of classic and modern fiction and poetry for children to read aloud and share with each other. Any way children can get into reading is good news to us!

That's why we're loving CarlOnTV.com - an online video channel full of children's book reviews brought to you by a range of wild, wacky and wonderful characters and Carl himself, a manager at Wallasey Village Library who is on a mission to make reading fun for children and young people. These collection of characters certainly are that...!

Take a look at the video explaining just what CarlOnTV is all about...
