Libraries in Nottinghamshire are gearing up for a summer of reading, as the Summer Reading Challenge returns with a sports and games themed challenge. Produced by The Reading Agency and run in libraries across the country the Summer Reading Challenge is a brilliant way to maintain children’s reading enthusiasm throughout the summer break. Children read six library books of their choice over the summer, collecting rewards (including smelly stickers) along the way. Every child who completes the challenge will receive a certificate and medal. This year children are invited to join the Ready, Set, Read! team (and their animal mascots) as they use their skills to weave their way through a summer obstacle course. Ready, Set, Read! is running in all Inspire libraries until Sunday 3 September, for children aged 4 – 11. It’s completely FREE to take part.
