Are you brave? Ready for adventure? Fabulous at finding letters? Then why not join Story Detectives, Playful and Particular, as they journey round your local library collecting letters, solving clues, and building an adventure story.
It will take children and their families on an imaginative journey through the library to discover different kinds of books, from a detective book to an adventure book, a dictionary to a fairy tale. It is aimed at children 3+ years and their grownups, however all children are welcome!
