Children have taken over Llanelli Library to kick start this year’s Summer Reading Challenge ‘Mythical Maze’.
Children joined Sir Charlie Stinky Socks on his really big adventure with interactive storytelling, sound effects and props. The children also decorated a giant castle, which will be in the Children’s Library all summer.
It is hoped that the children will be inspired to return to their local library during the holidays to sign up for the Mythical Maze summer reading challenge.
Carmarthenshire Libraries take part in the national summer reading challenge each year and hundreds of children sign up to win prizes as they read and return their books over the holidays. The incentives this year include a fridge magnet, zip-tag and certificate.
Children’s & Young People’s Librarian, Lesley Cresswell, said:” It was fantastic that so many children came into the library to take part in our first event of the summer, and have signed up for our challenge to get exciting rewards for reading books over the holidays”.
Carmarthenshire Libraries host many events throughout the year. Make sure you don’t miss out by following them on Facebook or Twitter alternatively email mailto:mlibrary@carmarthenshire.gov.uk or call 01267 224824.
