Summer Reading Challenge 2008 in SEELB Libraries

 

You don’t have to be mad about sport to take part in the tenth Summer Reading Challenge!

 

This year’s challenge ‘Team Read’, which has a sporting theme to link in with the Olympic Games in Beijing in August, challenges each child 4 - 12 years to read 6 books during the summer holidays.

 

There are a range of sporting incentives along the way and a certificate for everyone who crosses the finishing line!

  

This year BookStart Book Crawl Certificates have also been designed for younger children aged up to 4, who wish to take part in Team Read.
