Families win books after sharing reading selfies with #StokeReads

23 Aug 2017

Three families in Stoke-on-Trent have been chosen to receive a bundle of books after sharing 'reading selfies' as part of the Stoke Reads campaign.

Families across the city were encouraged to take pictures of their favourite reading spots, and share them on social media with the hashtag #StokeReads. There were lots of great entries taken in different places across the city and even internationally!

Each family has won a bundle of books including My Animal Friends by Dick King Smith, two titles in the Stink series by Megan McDonald as well as two fun and educational sticker books.

The competition is still open, so make sure to keep sharing your pictures with #StokeReads to be in with a chance of winning prizes.
