Reading Heroes
Become a Reading Hero at your library every summer.
Reading Heroes
Reading Heroes is the summer reading programme offered in all libraries across Lancashire. It encourages children aged 4 to 12 (although not exclusively) to keep reading through the summer holidays. It offers prizes for those who read 5 books over the summer. There are additional incentives for those who also complete a number of challenges.
During summer 2024 over 9400 children across Lancashire took part in Reading Heroes, reading an astonishing 23,300 books between them.
Having defeated the Spoiler in 2023, and Blurb the Alien in 2024, Dr Paige Turner will return with a new Reading Heroes adventure in summer 2025.
