BORGARBÓKASAFNIÐ
The exciting Summer Reading Challenge, Gúndi the Goat and the Great Grass Hunt, organised by Reykjavík City Library, The Directorate of Education and School Services, and public libraries across Iceland, is still in full swing for children throughout the country.
The fourth prize winner has now been drawn, and this time the lucky winner is Alexandra Cristea, aged seven.
We presented Alexandra with her prize book, congratulated her, and asked if she had a favourite book.
“Harry Potter,” she replied without hesitation, making it clear that adventure stories are right up her alley.
Where do you most enjoy reading?
“On the sofa with my mum,” Alexandra answered with a smile.
With those words, we wished Alexandra a wonderful summer filled with great books and said our goodbyes.
The Summer Reading Challenge runs until 20 August, so there's still plenty of time for children to take part!
