Welcome to Read a Million Words
Read a Million Words
launched in October 2004 in Bristol. The idea is a simple one - to challenge children and young people to read a million words in a year, and to encourage those children to read more for pleasure and purpose. This ideal may be achieved not just by reading books but by also accessing any form of the written word. It can include digital texts - such as the Internet, film and radio scripts, to road signs, food labels, magazines and comics. Words can be read in any language or in several languages. Depending on age and ability the million-word target may be achieved individually or in groups.
