Announcing the SRC 2014 poster!

This year's Summer Reading Club poster
"For this year's poster, children's Authorstrator Jeremy Tankard, explores our theme of Funny Business by asking the timeless question: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" The result is an engaging Chicken whose road-crossing motivation is the humour-filled possibilities of a joke book (easily acquired by joining the Summer Reading Club, of course!). Our Chicken resides in a delightfully zany cartoon-world of appealing animals who improbably drive, ride, and fly a variety of vehicles."
