Children can go on a deep sea adventure in libraries

CHILDREN across Devon can take part in a summer book quest for free at their local library.

- 

The new quest has been created by Libraries Unlimited, the charity which runs the libraries in the county outside of Plymouth. It offers a change to the usual reading challenge, with children encouraged to participate by doing a variety of activities along the theme of a deep sea adventure.

Activities include drawing a sea creature (real or imagined), trying a water activity like swimming or rock pooling and telling a member of staff an underwater fact. To promote inclusion, children can either count how often they read for 10 minutes or logging how many books they read.
