Pick your favourite big summer reads with our Wilkinson Publishing titles!
With the Big Summer Read challenge back this summer, we've put together a list of books for the kids to enjoy during the holidays!
We've partnered with Public Libraries Victoria with this challenge that encourages children to read regularly, explore new stories and build confidence in their reading.
It’s not just about ticking off titles, it’s about enjoying the journey, discovering favourite authors and keeping minds active while school’s out.
The Big Summer Read will run from 1 December to 31 January 2026. For more information and to register visit readbooks.com.au.
Happy reading!
