Now the school summer holidays are here, the annual “Summer Reading Challenge,” supported by our local libraries, is taking place again. The theme this year is a celebration of funny books, happiness and laughter.
The Silly Squad are a loveable bunch of animals who run a fantastic fun house. But beware: a mysterious baddy is waiting to spoil the fun!
Due to Covid-19, this year’s challenge has adopted an all new, all-digital format. Children aged from 4 to 11 can register online, with parental approval. They then set their own personal reading goal. They can read story books, fact books or even joke books – all types of reading count.
For further details, please visit www.inspireculture.org.uk and look for Silly Squad.
Nottinghamshire Libraries also have a Facebook page (search for “Inspire Nottinghamshire Libraries”), which you can follow to keep up to date with all the services they offer.
