Congratulations to the winner of the Newport Libraries Big Read competition, the Jones family, whose local library is Maindee.
Newport Community Learning and Libraries celebrated the Big Read event at the Riverfront Theatre in October. Authors, illustrators, playwrights and storytellers came from far and wide to entertain, inform and inspire Newport families.
The competition, in conjunction with libraries across the city, involved reading four books by any of the Big Read authors and illustrators who were taking part in the Big Read event.
The Jones family received a prize of books signed by the Big Read authors and illustrators, which was presented by Community Library Manager at Maindee Library Frances Lewis. The Jones family said they were thrilled by the number of books they had won and couldn’t wait to read them all.
