The Week Junior Summer of Reading 2023

Be a reading hero!

This holiday we’re inviting you to join our Summer of Reading squad of super readers. Your challenge – should you choose to accept it – is to read at least one book during the summer break, then let us know what you think of it for a chance to enter our prize draw. If you aren’t sure what to read, take a look at our brilliant list of 50 books recommended by readers of The Week Junior.

How to enter

All you need to do is read a book (any book you like), then – using our entry form – rate it out of three stars and write a three word review for a chance to win. Make sure you have a parent/guardian’s permission before you enter.

You can enter as many times as you like, though each entry must be for a different book. The more books you read the better your chance of winning! 

The winner and two runners-up will be picked at random after the prize draw closes at midnight on Friday 1 September 2023. See our full terms and conditions here.

Win! All the books from our award shortlist
