Space Hop – the summer reading challenge for children

South Dublin County Libraries are launching children into orbit for an intergalactical adventure that will keep them reading throughout the school summer holidays. Space Hop Summer Reading Challenge is simple – children are encouraged to read six or more books of their choice during the holidays with collectable incentives and rewards, plus a certificate for every child who completes the Challenge. This popular reading challenge is an important tool to inspire children to read in the long summer break from school when their reading skills can decline.
