With the disruption caused by COVID-19 and the impact of social distancing on schools and public libraries, we are delivering the 2020 Summer Reading Challenge online so we can ensure we continue to reach as many children and families as possible. The all-new digital Summer Reading Challenge with its Silly Squad theme will launch earlier than usual to keep children reading over the summer and support parents and carers with children already at home.Through the online Summer Reading Challenge, we will...
● Offer something reassuringly familiar – themed activities, space to share recommendations and rewards for keeping up with reading ● Ensure the programme remains free of charge for all
● Create much-needed support for libraries, educators, publishers, authors and parents, all with the same goal: to inspire kids to read for pleasure.

New Story Collaboration Website That Aims to Ignite a Child’s Creativity.
A new website that offers children the potential to become one of the authors of a story launched today.
The first two pages of the story are already there on the website for children to read, but it is up to them to decide what happens next. Following the guidelines given, children are invited to create and submit their version of what should happen on the next page. The best submission will be chosen and become part of the story.
Over time pages created by children will be added to the story until it is complete. The children who wrote the successful submissions will be named as the author of their page on the website and printed copies of the story will be produced naming them too.
The project aims to encourage reading and writing among children and to help them to express their creativity and imagination through submitting their own version of what should happen next.
