Libraries Invited to Join Blue Peter Book Club

Date: 11 04 2024

The Reading Agency and Manchester Libraries have teamed up with CBBC for the Blue Peter Book Club Live.

The Reading Agency are inviting librarians to join an online workshop at 4pm on 16th April 2024 to hear about how you can get involved in the Blue Peter Book Club and encourage children in your library to explore the world of books together.

Blue Peter Book Club Live  aims to inspire a love of reading and creativity in primary school-aged children across Greater Manchester and throughout the UK. This ambitious project will engage young readers through a multi-faceted approach involving free activities and events both in and outside of traditional reading spaces. 

There are some exciting things lined up for the Book Club in May, with opportunities for public, community, and school libraries to join in, and we want you to be the first to hear about them.

Join this webinar to find out more about the Book Club, the selected books, and how your library can take part and support children to earn their book badge. The webinar will be recorded and shared to catch up on.
