This year's Summer Reading Challenge takes place from Saturday 5 July to Saturday 13 September.
Developed by The Reading Agency in partnership with Libraries, the theme for this year is Story Garden - Adventures in Nature and the Great Outdoors - and it's all about taking reading to the great outdoors.
Volunteers needed
Are you 14 to 17-years-old and living or studying in Hillingdon? Why not apply to be a volunteer this year and help promote and deliver events and activities to children taking part in our Summer Reading Challenge?
Between Saturday 5 July and Saturday 13 September, children will be able to join for free in any Hillingdon Library.
Visit a library and borrow books at least 4 times during the summer (we recommend aiming to read at least 6 books). For each visit, children will get an entry into a prize draw (which they can win if they complete 4 visits).
Collect the reward stickers as you borrow books - there are 4 visits to complete.
Please note: Children wishing to take part will need to be a member of Hillingdon libraries - joining is free and easy.
Fantastic rewards for reading
We have some wonderful gifts for this year's challenge (available while stocks last).

More details, including events and activities, will be added to our website once finalised.
