Join this year’s Summer Reading Challenge running in every York library from Sat 13 July to Sun 15 Sept 2013.

Our Theme is a mysterious adventure called “Creepy House”. We challenge all 5 to 12 year olds to read 6 books in 3 stages.

Stage 1: The Awful Upstairs – read two books and collect stickers to reveal its residents.

Stage 2: The Gruesome Ground Floor – read two more books to discover who is hiding there.

Stage 3: The Spine-tingling Cellar – read two final books and complete the challenge by unveiling the bone shaking Skeleton Family Robinson.

Every time you read a book there will be a small prize and everyone who completes the challenge will be entered into a draw to win a Kindle Fire HD . There is also a mini challenge for Under 5s to collect stickers as they read.

The challenge launches at Explore York Library with a day of activities on Sat 13 July 11am to 4pm, but don’t worry if you can’t get there you can join up any time over the summer at any York library.
