Overview:
Every May, we announce the winners of the Forest of Reading Awards. In 2017 we decided to start a summer reading list that is selected by young people themselves. Every Spring we pull together a group of incredible kids and teens to meet for a day long event to talk about the best books for kids and teens to be reading each summer. The day is moderated by one of our Selection Committee members and fun and exciting guests pop in throughout the day.
