To celebrate 20 years of Summer Reading we are delighted to bring to you an even fuller and fantastic programme this year for all ages and interests.
This year Summer Reading is both online and, in our Libraries, which means you can borrow eBooks/eAudiobooks and print books too. We have something for all ages so simply register below to be in with a chance of winning a Google Android Tablet or an Aberdeen Football Shirt (and other great prizes).
This year, there are two online forms for participants to fill in and register to take part, one is for children, young adults and families and the other for our adult readers.
Download your card here, to enter Summer Reading Fun for individuals and groups. The interactive card makes it easy for you to mark off each circle as you complete an activity/read a book. Once your card is full send a copy back to us to be in with a chance to win a fantastic prize: summerreadingchallenge@aberdeenshire.gov.uk
