Why Reading Matters
If you missed Why Reading Matters on BBC Four on Monday, you're not too late to catch it: the programme is available to watch on BBC iplayer for the next five days.
The documentary, about the incredible power that reading unlocks in the brain, features Philip Davis, editor of The Reader magazine, investigating the 'Shakespeared Brain' - how the shapes of Shakespeare's lines and sentences effect our minds - and The Reader Organisation's pioneering outreach project Get Into Reading.
