Patana Gateway

Reading at Home

Hello Everyone,

With the school closed due to the floods, it’s a good time to spend some extra time reading.  Hopefully, you’ve got some good books at home to keep you going.  If not, we can help! 

We have E-Books available on the Library website.  From the front page of the online Library Catalogue, students can access free e-books.  For younger pupils, we have a subscription to Tumble Books which has hundreds of super story books waiting to be read.  For older students, there are more than 50 books on the Patana catalogue that can be ‘borrowed’ and read online. Titles include a mix of classic and current fiction books and non-fiction fact books.  Click into the information page of a book you want to read and press the Read Online button at the top right hand corner.  There is also a list of websites that offer free e-books. 

Luckily the book stores in Bangkok are still open and fully stocked.   But perhaps you’re unsure about what books to buy. The Library website is full of suggestions for good books to read for both Primary and Secondary students.  Just look for the Recommended Reading pages on the website. 

Finally, our website also has links to online Newspapers and Magazines so you can keep up to date with the news.

We’ll be checking the blog regularly, so send us a comment and let us know what you are reading at home.

Stay dry and keep reading! 

Ms. Holbrook & Ms. Sal
