La lettura come punto d’incontro e di scambio per promuovere una comunità responsabile

Education is not only a task, it is the reality “where the quality of life is played every day” (Massa, 1987, p. 12). Therefore, the education cannot be reduced to social replication, but educating means to be responsible. Starting from international studies on the link between reading and health (High, PC, Klass, P., Donoghue, et al 2014) we would like to describe a research project on the promotion of reading, where we discovered that reading to children is much more than a good practice. It gives back the voice of proximity and the relationship with others and with different cultures, showing that there is a quality of life also where we think it is no possible to find it and here educator’s role is really important.
