You have until Friday, August 25 to read as many books as you can from the challenge book list.
It is not a competition, but a challenge for NSW students from Kindergarten to Year nine to get the reading bug.
The aim of the challenge is to encourage a love of reading and to experience quality literature from a specially selected book list.
Most of the books on the list are available to borrow from the Library.
New Books
