Go wild for reading this summer!
This year the Reading Challenge has teamed up with the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) to bring an ecological themed Challenge that is fun and also helps us learn about the planet.
As always, read six books over summer to complete the Challenge and collect your rewards!
This year you can opt to collect all six books at once to reduce trips to and from the library, or even register online and read six eBooks to complete the Challenge.
Come to your local library to register, or visit the Summer Reading Challenge website today and get started!
