We hope that you are all enjoying Children's Book Week. If you haven't already visited us this week why not pop into your local library and see our special displays and enter our Champions Read Lucky Draw Prize.  All you have to do is borrow any two junior or young adult books.  Entries for this competition close tomorrow night!


The Children's Book Week books are very popular at the moment and you may not find them on the shelves. Please ask our friendly staff for help, we are more than happy to put a reserve on any book you want.
