The most important role in the education of the individual belongs to the book. V.A. Sukhomlinsky wrote: “School is, first of all, a book. Education is primarily a word, a book and live human relationship”. The recent trend is the loss of the exclusive role of reading in the life of society, which is associated with a great social risk, because without reading, the integration of the individual into the culture of society is impossible. If, while reading a book, a figurative system is built, then the so-called clip thinking, i.e. simple consumption of information has many disadvantages: the loss of analytical thinking, the coefficient of assimilation of knowledge, the feeling of empathy fades away. Schoolchildren are not even interested in the works of the school curriculum. And this is a cause for alarm, because it is at school age that not only love for the book is formed, but also genre preferences. Among students in grades 9-11, I conducted a survey "You need to write an essay on a work that you have not read, what will you do?" The result of the interview proved that it is easier for a modern student to use Internet sources than to turn to the book itself. The student does not want to waste time reading, because there is a PC at hand that will find the necessary information in a minute. Thus, a teenager deprives himself not only of pleasant leisure time with a book, but also of the development of nonstandard thinking. A negative factor in the formation of a child reader is the loss of family reading traditions. Joint reading of a book, communication about what has been read brings family members together, unites them spiritually. Meanwhile, at the present stage of development of society in most families, the book ceases to be a topic of conversation, home libraries disappear. All this has an extremely negative effect on the spiritual climate of the family and does not contribute to the formation of a child reader. Non-reading parents raise non-reading children. The main difference between family reading and its other types - classroom, extra-curricular and home reading - is that parents, using the book, begin to really engage in the spiritual development of their child, the formation of his morality. But it is the school library that is the conductor of book culture among students. provides the child's first reading experience. Thus, the name of the chosen project “Let's enter the world of books together” was determined.
