Annotation	The aim of the presented Bachelor thesis is to determine if and how the middle school age students’ reading is developed and cultivated at school and at home. The thesis consists of two main sections – theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part explains the key concepts related to reading, provides a psychological characterization of pubescence and offers information on how the school and after-school environments influence the child and his or her interest in reading. The empirical part, which constitutes a mainstay of the thesis, surveys middle school students and focuses on the cultivation and support of the children’s reading from school and family. It further addresses the students’ own relationship to selected books for children and teen-agers. In conclusion of the empirical section, results of the survey are compared with existing research on children’s reading. The section also presents ideas on how to cultivate the reading of students at the middle school where the survey took place.
