This project investigates how four teachers work to encourage their pupils’ love of reading. The study was conducted with the focus on teachers working in grades 1–3. The teacher’s view of their own role in furthering love of reading is also considered.It is hoped that other teachers will gain inspiration and ideas about how to work to motivate their pupils to read.To ascertain the four teachers’ opinions and thoughts I conducted qualitative interviews which I then analysed with the help of sentence concentration.The study shows that the teachers work in similar ways, but what they all have in common is that they further love of reading through methods that include conversation and communication with classmates and teacher. It has also been found that the teachers think that the responsibility for encouraging children’s lies not just with the teacher but also in the children’s home.
