Library Summer Reading Challenge

Children aged between 4 and 11 are being urged to get creative this summer for this year's Summer Reading Challenge 2024.

The free challenge is held every year across the country and is available in both Leicestershire County Council's libraries and community-managed libraries, encouraging children to read books and collect rewards in the process.

Running from Saturday 6 July to Saturday 7 September, this year's theme is 'Marvellous Makers,' aimed at sparking children's imaginations.

The Summer Reading Challenge motivates children to read whatever makes them happy, including library books, eBooks and eAudiobooks or having a story read to them – and to have fun while they do it.
