How it works 

The aim of this program is to slow ‘the summer slide’ of literacy levels by getting kids to read at least 10 books over December and January.

Register and log your books at https://readbooks.com.au

Once you have read the initial 10 books you enter the major prize pool. For every extra book you read it is another entry in your name and is an extra chance to win!   

Moorabool Libraries has joined with forty-seven other public libraries in Victoria to reach the goal of engaging 10,000 children across the state to read this summer.
