This year, The Reading Agency’s Summer Reading Challenge theme is... Ready, Set, Read! with the Youth Sport Trust. From July to September, the Summer Reading Challenge will celebrate play and participation, encouraging children to engage in games and sports in a way that best suits them.
Ready, Set, Read! will showcase how reading can be active and engaged, and can itself involve teamwork and community. Children will join a fictional superstar team (and their animal mascots!) as they use their skills to weave their way through a summer obstacle course.
Children will be able to take part in the Summer Reading Challenge in the library from July.
