Children's book author Kirsten Boie becomes patron of the “Reading Bag’s’ “Lesetüte’ project. “The 'Reading Bag' campaign aims to awaken the desire for reading among those starting school and to make parents aware of the importance of reading and being read aloud,” the German Book Trade Association says.

The bags with a first reading book would be designed by the first graders of the current school year and handed over to their successors in the fall. Here we have put together educationally valuable books for children aged 10 and over.
