It’s FREE to take part in The Summer Reading Challenge! Just ask at your local Sheffield library (visit the website: "Sheffield Libraries"). It is aimed at children from birth to 11 years of age. They have to read or share six books of their choice over the summer holidays, collecting stickers for each book that they read along the way. All children who complete the challenge in libraries will receive a medal and certificate.
It runs throughout the Summer holidays from 6 July until mid September.

The Challenge is all about reading for fun, so children can read anything they like!  Audio books, e-books, fiction, non-fiction, comics, joke books, poetry books, graphic novels…it all counts!  Library staff and volunteers are more than happy to help children discover new reads which suit their interests and reading level.

The Reading Agency has worked in partnership with Create, a leading arts charity, and public libraries, this year's Challenge celebrates kids' creativity and storytelling abilities. Children will be encouraged to explore new books and stories while taking part in free activities, from arts and crafts to music, dance, and more.
Children can also take part in the Summer Reading Challenge online by visiting the Summer Reading Challenge website.
