“I'd say to other parents that sharing a book with your child can be a really special time together. The Summer Reading Challenge will help you find books they'll be interested in. And it's all free - it doesn't cost anything to join your local library and take out a book.”
Mother of James, age 8, Solihull
“I even had a Team Read sleepover where my friends brought their books and we all read. Mum says we were unusually quiet!”

“We are delighted with the number of children from all the year groups in our school who participated in the Summer Reading Challenge. By encouraging more children to read during the summer holidays, this reading initiative has not only succeeded in promoting reading for pleasure but it has raised the profile of our school library and contributed to the children’s reading development.”
