Summer Reading Challenge 2015!  

Coming soon! All children aged 4-11 years will be invited to take part in this year’s Summer Reading Challenge at Peterborough Libraries – and this year’s theme is ‘Record Breakers’...

Children’s reading can ‘dip’ during the long summer holidays. The annual Summer Reading Challenge in libraries helps children to keep up their reading skills and confidence, and children will be able to sign up for the Challenge at any Peterborough library from Saturday 11 July. Taking part is simple. Kids sign up at their local library, and then read at least six library books of their choice, collecting stickers and other incentives along the way – all for free. Children can read whatever they like – fact books, joke books, picture books, audio books – just as long as they are borrowed from the library. Every time children finish a book they get stickers and rewards and there’s a certificate for everyone who finishes. The theme for 2015 will be linked to Guinness World Records™, which celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2015. Guinness World Records annual books are library favourites, too.

The Summer Reading Challenge is open to all school children and is designed for all reading abilities. It is produced by the Reading Agency in association with Guinness World RecordsTM and delivered by libraries.
