6 Book Challenge

Six Book Challenge 2011 logo
The Six Book Challenge 2011 will be starting in January. Those taking part are asked to read six books between January and June and keep a log, noting down a few lines about the book and scoring it out of 5
( 1 star= low, 5 stars= high). It's great opportunity for those who have English as a second language or are not confident readers, to improve their literacy skills. There are prizes for those who complete the challenge plus a chance to be entered into a national prize draw for a London theatre trip. We will start signing people up at the Wallace and Gromit Open Day but you are welcome to come into the LRCs if you would like some more information and we will continue to let people join well into the New Year.
