Summer Reading Challenge
29 Jun 2020
Have fun and get silly with this year’s Summer Reading Challenge - it’s all online!
Silly Squad, the 2020 Summer Reading Challenge, is set in a fun house and this year is all about funny books, happiness and having a laugh!
The challenge started earlier than normal this year, on 5
th June, but you can sign up online right through to September at
sillysquad.org.uk and find heaps of super silly activities, quizzes, videos, games, a place to keep track of your books and rewards to unlock along the way.
The challenge is aimed at all children from 4 to 11 who just need to read anything that makes them happy - whether it be a comic, joke book, poetry, fiction or non-fiction, in digital or print format, an e-book borrowed from the library or a something they already have at home.
North Yorkshire Libraries are still closed so they cannot offer the usual printed materials but they have a terrific selection of children’s’ eBooks and eAudiobooks available to download for free at
www.northyorks.gov.uk/digitallibrary . You’ll need your library card and PIN to download them but it’s no problem if you are not a member - just call call 01609 533878 to join.
Please also keep a look out on your local library Facebook page and the North Yorkshire Libraries Facebook page (@nycclibraries) for special Silly Squad activities and reading recommendations.
