We may be in the final week of this year’s Word2015 Festival, but there are plenty of ‘wordy’ activities coming up this summer, and throughout the year. The Summer Reading Challenge runs from 4 July -20 September 2015. If you’re aged 4-11, this year’s Summer Reading Challenge challenges you to explore some of the astonishing real-life achievements and world records. Read 6 books, collect stickers and discover the wonderful and wacky records from around the world in six categories: Cool Tech, Way to Go!, The Big Stuff, Animal Magic, Action! Adventure! and People Power. If you finish all 6 books, you could also win one of our great prizes! For more information go to www.summerreadingchallenge.org.uk
