Simon Armitage, Juno Dawson and Sarah Crossan talk to Jonty Claypole

LovetoRead

– BBC Tent
A year ago the BBC launched LovetoRead at Hay.  The campaign celebrated the pleasures of reading and was launched in partnership with all the major reading agencies, charities and libraries.  It culminated in a weekend when the nation was exhorted to take time out and curl up with a book.  Thousands engaged and shared their recommendations across social media.  To celebrate the campaign BBC’s Director of Arts, Jonty Claypole, is joined by poet Simon Armitage, Juno Dawson and Sarah Crossan to talk about the books they love to read.
