Wildlife Fun at Filey Library

Children can find out all about looking after the natural world this summer when North Yorkshire libraries and the Reading Agency invite them to sign up for the Summer Reading Challenge.The Challenge is aimed at children aged 4 to 11, encouraging them to read six library books over the summer holiday period. This year the theme is Wild World Heroes, and is all about what they can do to make a difference to the environment and stand up for the planet.To take part and be a Wild World Hero, children just need to sign up at their nearest library. They’ll be given a colourful fold out map of an imaginary place called Wilderville. As they read their chosen books, they will receive stickers (some scratch and sniff!) and can use the stickers to fix an environmental problem and make Wilderville a better, greener place to be. There are more free incentives to collect along the way and those who complete the Challenge will receive a medal and a certificate to celebrate their achievement.
