Lightning Readers bookclub
If you're between 8 and 12, love reading and want to talk about all things books, why not join Lightning Readers Book Club.
The club could be called 'Orange Juice, Chips and Chocolate Frogs' as these are regular features of the experience. Along with the crumbs and greasy fingers, there is lively discussion and book reviewing, active listening and lots of laughter.
There are no set books; just discuss what you have been reading in the past month and rate it. Reviews get written up each month and are published on the Lightning Readers blog.
