Warwickshire Libraries are running a reading challenge this summer for children aged 4 to 11. The Summer Reading Challenge encourages children to borrow and read six books of their choice, which can include eBook and eAudio formats, over the course of the summer holidays. To get involved, children can sign up now through their local library to receive a collector’s poster and track their progress towards their chosen reading goal. All children who successfully complete the challenge are presented with a certificate and medal.
