Maybe some parents could have kids and/or teen literature focused book club parties.

This might sound kind of...expensive? But, what if the dads and moms of the land could go to a book club party like how I used to go to a book fair when I was a kid (because that used to be a thing when I was a kid. I don't know if that's a thing anymore, but it used to be a thing when I was a kid) and they could see laid out before them some books they haven't read yet (like the "Ever After High" books, for example?)

"Ever After High: The Storybook of Legends"

And then they could pick one that stands out to them (like I might pick out a card that stands out to me from an oracle deck.) And they could talk about the cover of it or the information on the back of it and what it means to them. Mood lighting could help them relax and feel safe to share what comes up for them. Or maybe they could flip the pages and just let it fall open to a passage and read it aloud. And then talk about how they feel about what they just read. That's kind of fun to do, sometimes, too.
