This year, our Year 6 bookworms have been taking part in the Fantastic Book Awards, an exciting reading challenge run by the Lancashire Library Service. Over the past few months, they have been diving into five incredible books, each one packed with adventure, mystery, and unforgettable characters. The shortlisted books were: **Beastlands, Race to Frostfall Mountain** **Code Name Kingfisher** **Finn Jones Was Here** **Kevin the Vampire, A Most Mysterious Monster** **The Legend of Ghastly Jack Crowheart** After lots of reading, discussion, and some very tough decisions, Year 6 had the tricky task of ranking the books in order of their favourite to help decide a winner. It wasn’t easy – every book brought something special! The excitement isn’t over yet! Next month, Mr. Broomhead will be taking some of our Year 6 readers to the Fantastic Book Awards ceremony at UCLan, where they’ll get to celebrate all the brilliant books and authors involved. A huge well done to everyone who took part – we love seeing our pupils so passionate about reading!
