Mrs Wilson’s Reading Café and Miss Duncan’s S2 English class are busy reading shortlisted books for 2014 Grampian Children’s Book Awards.
It is not too late for other pupils to get involved. Books are available now in the library. Why not watch the book trailers of the books to help you decide which one to read first?
