The countdown is on for a fantastic line-up of children’s authors to come together this Saturday 16 July, 2022 at the prestigious and iconic London location, The British Library.

This weekend, we are inviting you to attend The Week Junior Summer of Reading LIVE!, a brand new event supported by LoveReading4Kids for children aged 8-14, which aims to encourage young people to read more over the summer by igniting their imagination.

Featuring your favourite authors, live on stage, this event will spark your inspiration and imagination. Whether it's becoming the hero of your favourite book, or experiencing all kinds of amazing places, reading really is a superpower!

Reading for pleasure is a gift that will last a lifetime, so we hope that attendees will be inspired by some of our much-loved and best-selling authors Elle McNicoll, M.G. Leonard, Sam Sedgman, Peter Bunzl, Katherine Woodfine, Sharna Jackson and, just announced, Frank Cottrell-Boyce.

And, thanks to our friends at The Week Junior, you can now get an exclusive 20% off tickets using the link below.

Frank Cottrell-Boyce

Listen as Frank Cottrell-Boyce tells you all about Noah and how he coped without the help of technology.

And much much more!
