Reader's rights
Reading should always remain a pleasure, never a chore. In his book Like a Novel, the French writer Daniel Pennac rightly reminds us that every reader, young or old, possesses inalienable rights.
Here are the inalienable rights of every reader:
Recognizing these rights means respecting each individual's pace, tastes, and freedom. Above all, it means understanding that the pleasure of reading stems from the freedom to choose. By valuing these rights, we enable children to build an authentic and lasting relationship with books, a relationship founded on desire, curiosity, and enjoyment.

October, the Month of Reading
The Lire c'est génial! project is part of a larger movement to promote reading across Quebec: the Month of Reading.
Throughout October, reading is celebrated in cultural, educational, and community settings. It's an opportunity to showcase books and bring people together around a common goal: to instill a love of reading in everyone.
Taking place during this month dedicated to promoting reading throughout Quebec, the Lire c'est génial! project participates in a vast collective movement that puts books and the pleasure of reading in the foreground.
