A link with Stories from the Web enables children to read and send in book reviews and join in with other fun activities.
The Extreme Team Read section of the website was created as part of the Enjoying Reading project, funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families. Enjoying Reading is a coordinated approach to supporting young readers through a partnership between schools, school libraries, school library services and public libraries.
