The Big Friendly Read, Summer Reading Challenge 2016 . Celebrating Roald Dahl 100

Fantastic resource pack of fun, creative ideas and activities to inspire schools, children and families to take part
in the Summer Reading Challenge 2016 - at a library near you, in the summer holidays. This year, libraries everywhere are celebrating 100 years of the world’s favourite storyteller Roald Dahl and the Summer Reading Challenge 2016 is called THE BIG FRIENDLY READ.

There is no other free reading challenge that involves so many children, introduces families to their library, encourages children to choose books freely and independently and is endorsed by parents, teachers and the
Department for Education. Pupils of all ages love it!

Partner with your local library for this well-loved reading for pleasure programme! Inspire and encourage your pupils to take part before the holidays and celebrate and reward your pupils who completed the Challenge after the holidays. Great for end of term lessons and lessons with your new class. Keep them reading in the holidays!
