  • Läsrörelsen (The Reading Movement), Background Story Läsrörelsen, Projects
    May 2015 Läsrörelsen (the Reading Movement), background story The first national campaign of the non-profit association, Läsrörelsen, started in 2000 with the motto “Give your children a language”, which is now the motto of the association. The initiative was partly due to a marked decrease in the number of parents who read to their young children, a development that had been going on for years and been reported in the so called Barnbarometern (Children’s Barometre) in 1999. Another reason was a study made by the OECD, which showed that 25 percent of the adult population in Sweden lacked in terms of reading and writing skills. A follow-up study showed that 20 percent of young adults (18–25 years old) did not manage to reach a level of reading and writing required to graduate from compulsory school. Läsrörelsen is also a continuation of the national Dyslexikampanjen (Dyslexia Campaign) carried out during the end of the 1990s, where Elisabet Reslegård acted as campaign leader and Bengt Westerberg (former Liberal Party leader and Deputy Prime Minister) as chairman. They maintained the same roles during the first years of Läsrörelsen. Another national campaign, Lär för livet (Learn for Life)/Läsrörelsen, began in September 2002, with curiosity as the keyword. Just like the previous campaign, it was a main theme at the Göteborg Book Fair. Läsrörelsen, projects LÄSLOVET (the Reading Holiday) week 44 – a wide collaboration to promote reading Every year, one million Swedish pupils have one week of holidays in the winter and one in the autumn. When the first holiday week was introduced in the winter of 1940 during World War II, it was called the Coke Holiday and was put in place to save heating costs in the schools (coke was used for heating at the time).

    LENA ADELSOHN LIJEROTH, SWEDISH MINISTER OF CULTURE INUGURATES SWEDEN’S PARTICIPATION IN THE 2013 BOLOGNA CHILDREN’S BOOK FAIR About fifty Swedish authors and illustrators will be in Bologna from 25 to 28 March 2013 for the Children’s Book Fair, the world’s largest fair for this sector. Sweden, the first Scandinavian to be Guest of Honour, will present the theme “Children’s Right to Culture.” Sweden will offer a programme of events and a special exhibit to be inaugurated by Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth, Swedish Minister of Culture. “It is a great honour to inaugurate such an important event, and it will be very interesting to see Swedish literature for children and teenagers in an international context,” she says. “In addition to allowing Sweden to present its literature for children and teenagers, the Fair is the ideal place to discuss ways to attract children to reading,” she continues. As Guest of Honour, Sweden will present a large exhibit on contemporary Swedish illustration. The exhibit, covering over 300 m2, offers a group of 31 illustrators selected by a jury of experts, with panels focusing on the perspectives of children. Many of these artists – including Olof Landström, Sven Nordqvist, Eva Lindström, Pija Lindenbaum and Ilon Wikland – are very well known. Others are young artists just starting their career: in fact, a third of the illustrators were born in the 1980s. The exhibit will be accompanied by a large catalogue with information on the illustrators. The Book Fair will also offer seminars and presentations of many Swedish authors, including Sara Elfgren Bergmark, Mats Strandberg, Ulf Stark, Martin Widmark and Moni Nilsson.
