Pick up a form from the library and then you have until the end of the year to complete the 12 themed reading challenges. Completion will get you an entry into a prize draw at the end of the year.
Not a library member? It's free and really easy to join - just pop in and ask!
Special thanks to the Friends of Ludlow Library for designing the Challenge 💛
