Bay Children Challenged to Read Five Books in 14 Days

8 October 2011 By Alan

Children in Nelson Mandela Bay must read five books in two weeks between 17 and 29 October 2011 to win a prize!

This is the challenge that the municipal libraries are issuing to all library members between the ages of three and fifteen. We ask young readers to read five books in just two weeks.  Those who have managed to read five books will be eligible to attend a celebratory party in the library early in November 2011.

Friends and families of these avid readers will be able to follow their progress by viewing the “brag” boards in each participating library. The young readers will receive a gold star for every book they read or read to them after they have told the librarian something about the book.

The reading challenge starts on 17 October and ends on 29 October 2011.

Contact Details for Municipal Libraries.
