Extreme Reading - Competition Winners

Throughout summer 2008, as a National Year of Reading competition, readers of all ages were asked to submit photographs to their local library showing that reading can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere. There were many great entries showing people reading in wheelbarrows, on slides and swings and on some very exciting looking holidays!  Winners in the three age categories have now been presented. All the winners photographs will be displayed in libraries from early April 2009.
