Good literacy development from an early age is an important asset in every child’s life. Reading serves as the major foundational skill for all school-based learning – it is a multifaceted process involving word recognition, comprehension, fluency, and motivation. Our idea is a collaborative venture created to provide a new perspective, build on knowledge and develop important life skills. “Learn & display literacy project” can materialise by uniting children, young people, parents, cultural leaders and museums in Tower Hamlets, London. Participants develop a cultural storybook outside of school in order to increase literacy rates, community engagement and parental involvement in children’s reading development.
