Make reading their superpower this summer
Reading is one of the greatest gifts you’ll ever give your child. It’s a true superpower that will help them in the real world, every day.
The Week Junior was created to get kids to love reading, a skill that fires your child’s imagination, increases their vocabulary, and boosts their wellbeing. It encourages 8-14s to explore what's happening around the world - fuelling their natural curiosity and sparking their own opinions.

I wish The Week Junior had been around when I was a kid - I’d have known so much more about the world in which I was growing up.
My granddaughter Rosamund dashes in from school on a Friday afternoon, grabs her latest copy of The Week Junior & disappears for the next 3 hours. She loves this magazine!
The Week Junior is brilliant! All the news, without the boring bits. Or at least with the boring bits made not boring.
