The Week Junior gets children into reading. And reading really is an enduring superpower, making their imagination leap and their confidence bound, turbo-charging their thinking, building vocabulary and boosting wellbeing.
Our weekly Book Club section features the latest children’s books, interviews with authors and illustrators, reader reviews and recommendations. Our Book Awards celebrate the very best children’s books with the chance to get involved in the voting.
This summer we’re thrilled to bring you a wealth of exciting activities, resources and competitions to help your child discover the power of reading for pleasure. Dive into a world where every page turns into an adventure and every story unlocks their imagination.
The Week Junior is designed and written by experts to get kids to fall in love with reading and learning. Even reluctant readers will find the short, engaging articles digestible and enjoyable and will find themselves reading the whole magazine in a fraction of the time they would finish a book; a great confidence boost whilst improving language and communication skills. Using the articles as a start point for discussions and debates at home is also an excellent way of improving children’s oracy – essential for personal and academic expression.
It's a brilliant way to:
🗸 Spark their natural curiosity in the world around them
🗸 Help them see different viewpoints - and form opinions of their own
🗸 Boost their confidence as they grow their understanding
🗸 Get them reading, talking and thinking - and passionate about sharing what they learn!
