2025 Summer Reading Challenge, Story Garden

Explore nature and discover the outdoors with a FREE children’s reading challenge at your local Oxfordshire library! From 5 July to 6 September, children across Oxfordshire can collect stickers and rewards as they enjoy reading library books. 

The 2025 Summer Reading Challenge, Story Garden, celebrates adventure, fantasy and the great outdoors. We’ll be inspiring children to tap into a world of imagination through reading and exploring the magical connection between storytelling and nature. Children who finish the Challenge at an Oxfordshire library will get a medal and a certificate. 

• Under 4s can take part in a mini challenge with their own special collector’s folder and stickers
