Reading and Writing Groups

Numerous studies have now shown that children who read for pleasure do better in school and in later life no matter what their background.

Book groups for children and young people

Schools can teach children to read but what libraries do is help children find something that sparks that love of reading for them.

Book groups give children the chance to share their favourite books and authors and take part in fun activities to encourage them to try something new and develop their reading tastes.

Groups for children run in a number of our libraries and we are always looking to start more so if your local library doesn't have one at the moment please talk to staff about the possibility of starting one.
