As reading mediator book Cuentos fantásticos. De pactos y encantamientos Tomo II will be used, which will allow us to arouse the interest of students and rescue the customs and traditions of the city through popular legend. Regarding the methodology, a mixed approach has been chosen that integrates the quantitative and qualitative approaches to achieve a deeper analysis. The research was descriptive, based mainly on the research-action methodology, which focuses on educational change through reflection. The study population consists of a sample of 32 eighth year EGB students from Escuela de Educación Básica Julio Abad Chica. The results obtained show that gamification combined with the appropriate strategies for reading has a positive impact on the development of reading habits and the enjoyment of reading.
