Burnham Library launches summer reading challenge for local children
Burnham-On-Sea Library is encouraging local children to join a reading challenge over the summer.
The library in Burnham’s Princess Street is joining a county-wide initiative calling on children to sign up to read six books this summer and become ‘Wild World Heroes’ as part of a Summer Reading Challenge.
The theme ‘Wild World Heroes’ has been inspired by nature and developed in partnership with World Wildlife Fund (WWF). It encourages 4-11-year olds to borrow and read any six library books over the summer.
As children read library books for the Summer Reading Challenge, they will collect transformation stickers – some with mysterious smells. By adding these stickers to a special fold-out map, young readers will be able to fix environmental problems in each area.
