Summer reading challenge

Turn up the volume on reading this summer! The Reading Agency invites children to discover the joy of reading through Read to the Beat!

The music themed Summer Reading Challenge 2026

With a fantastic collection of books inspired by music from around the world, children can explore stories, poetry, graphic novels & non fiction.

Best of all, books are FREE to borrow from your local library. As part of the National Year of Reading, we are encouraging families to make reading part of their summer adventures.

Children can sign up at the library or online, set their reading goals & enjoy rewards along the way.
