📢 NEW: Today we're publishing our research exploring how children's enjoyment of reading declines during primary school.
And Waterstones @UKLaureate @frankcottrell_b says the findings concern him "greatly".

ALT A screenshot of part of an article saying that Taylor Swift is a poor role model because she’s unmarried and childless at 34. I’ve deleted everything except the words ‘at 34, Swift remains unmarried and childless, a fact that is irrelevant’.
Hope the French vote wisely and next Sunday (I have voted, French people abroad are represented the French assembly and we can vote online). instagram.com/p/C8v_Ykbikyd/…

A long shot: I took this photo last night at @taylorswift13 #londontstheerastour and inadvertently captured this sweet family moment from block 107, they were in the medic space in front. Hoping social media will work its magic and get it to them! If it’s you, let me know! 💜✨🎇
