On your marks! It’s time for Ready, Set, Read! the Summer Reading Challenge 2023

The Summer Reading Challenge takes place every year during the summer holidays.

Children can sign up at their local library, then read any books of their choice to collect the special stickers and rewards along the way, with a certificate and medal for all who complete the Challenge.

Children’s reading can ‘dip’ during the holidays if they do not have regular access to books and encouragement to read for pleasure. The annual Summer Reading Challenge really helps by getting children into libraries over the summer to choose books freely and independently, and is endorsed by parents and teachers.
