EmpathyLab has launched the 2021 Read For Empathy book collection, after weighing up hundreds of publisher submissions to select 50 powerful empathy-boosting books for 4-16 year olds.
The primary collection is for 4-11-year olds (30 books); the secondary collection features 20 books for 12-16 year olds.
The aim is to help anyone living or working with children raise a generation with strong empathy skills. Free downloadable guides are available at empathylab.uk/2021-read-for-empathy-collections
