Despite a 72 per cent literacy rate in Gilgit-Baltistan, many children in these towns don’t have access to good books. This week You! takes a look at the reading culture in the region…
Book lovers and readers often attribute their reading passion to parents who read them bedtime stories, teachers who affectionately added storytelling to their lessons, reading competitions at school and access to libraries and books in their growing years. However, we don’t realise that this is a huge privilege, as in cities like Gilgit and Hunza, many children in these towns don’t have access to the kind of books we did in our growing years. And so, in the absence of well stocked libraries and bookstores with wide collections, any development initiative to encourage children to read and build a love for learning, reading and storytelling in them, is a remarkable effort.
