Team Read 2008
This summer, at the Olympics in Beijing, we will be
seeing lots of teams working together to win medals for their
country.
This year's Summer Reading Challenge, Team Read, gives you the
opportunity to be part of a reading team which covers the whole
country!
Join in the fun - and you can also bring home your own
medal!
The Challenge!
This year's game has a sports theme. Look out for information
about 'Team Read' at your library or school in July.
Team Read is a free reading challenge for
children aged
4 - 12.
First, if you are not yet a member, join your
local library.
This is easy to do and it's free!
From Saturday July 12th until Saturday
6th September, you can join the reading team, taking up the
challenge to read 6 books over the summer holidays.
You will receive an "animated" Team Read
membership card and there are six stickers to collect to complete
the picture on your own fold-out poster.
Like the athletes in the Olympics you can aim
to reach bronze, silver and gold levels.
When you have completed your 6 books you
receive a glittering medal and a certificate
Summer Fun
Look out for "Team Read" activities and events
which will be happening in libraries around the Vale of Glamorgan
throughout the summer.
There will be competitions to enter too!
The Team Read website has lots of
games, activities and author blogs.
Readers who want more of a challenge can join
the Extreme Team Read section.
Little brothers and sisters can join in with

Crawl (for children ages 0-3 years) and get a Team
Read certificate too!
So don't just sit there – join our team and get reading
– race down to your library today!
