When Finns hear the word library, they think of more than just bookshelves. 📚
In Finland, libraries offer surprising resources like sewing machines, bicycles and even season tickets, expanding their role as community hubs.

The shocking truth of what is going on in our public libraries! (My latest @GuardianBooks / @GdnSaturday cartoon)
ALT Title: The shocking truth of what is going on in our public libraries! Image 1: A librarian hands a book to a girl saying "I think you'll enjoy this". The caption reads: Teens prescribed mind-altering experiences! Panel 2: A librarian reads to toddlers under a 'Reading is Fun!' poster. The caption reads: Children indoctrinated from an early age! Panel 3: A librarian checks out a pile of books for a user, saying "come again soon!". The caption reads: Free samples distributed to promote addiction! Panel 4: A figure approaches the library by night passing a sign for a Ulysses Study Group. The caption reads: Groups gather by night to study arcane texts!

How do you get kids to LOVE READING? Try these 3 things:
1. Give them the widest possible range of books to choose from.
2. Let them choose freely & never dismiss their choices.
3. Let them read for pure pleasure - no strings attached, no tests, just FUN!!!
