Since 1988, our team of professional readers has been traveling mainly in Le Nord and Le Pas-de-Calais, two French departments in the Hauts-de-France region in order to read aloud to toddlers and their parents, as well as children, teenagers and adults.
A rich experience with many encounters with people and books.
Unique, outstanding and lively encounters.

« Reading, what for?
Simply to dream, to think, to understand,
to get out of oneself, from one’s home, to go very far, or very close.
It helps to find one’s way, other ways,
also to invent and to remember.
It helps to breathe, to be less afraid.
It also helps to laugh, and to cry.
It helps to live. »
Isabelle Stella
(formerly Sagnet)
Director of Read With Me
Our readings are aimed primarily at people who are “vulnerable” or “far” from books and writing, in multiple places, with the commitment of multiple partners. We favour individual or small group readings.
We know it’s important:
Professional reader, quite a story!
Words from salaried readers
« When we are told “You only read!…”, well yes! But not only…
First of all, we try and convince the most distant, the most reluctant, those who have never seen a particular interest in reading.
This job aims above all to arouse the desire to go there, to read, to open and sometimes even just to touch a book. »
« To be a reader is to practice a profession that has proven itself by all the beneficial effects on all people, from toddlers to adults.
It is to enhance their skills.
It is to pass on stories and share a common culture.
It means creating and carrying out innovative and varied projects. »
In addition to its salaried professional activity, Read With Me runs a network of volunteer readers in two French departments, Le Nord and Le Pas-de-Calais.
