Reading that only 35% of 8-10 yr olds in the UK read for pleasure is heartbreaking.
Books were a huge comfort to me as a child, and the reason I do what I do now is because a book captured my imagination so much it lit a fire in me.
It's just very sad, and I really hope it improves.

This book still sits proudly on my bookshelf today, and will until either it or I turns to dust.
