Xtreme Readers!

If you love reading, why not join the Xtreme Readers?

These cool kids meet at the children’s library on the last Friday of each month

from 5-6pm. At the meetings we take a look at the new books,

share any great reads (see Xtreme readers’ hot picks), and have lucky draws for free books.

Each month there is a different focus – coming soon: meet an author!
