Each sticker adds to the picture on the children’s collector folder to reveal clues as to who is responsible for the strange goings on in the library. Some of the stickers are scratch and sniff.
Children choose what they would like to read on the challenge - story book, fact books, poetry, jokes, graphic novels – as long as it is a library book all reading counts!
[The aim of the Summer Reading Challenge is to inspire a love of reading and encourage children to keep reading over the summer holidays. Library staff and volunteers will chat to children about the books they read for the Challenge]
