This summer, super-reader Matilda is taking centre stage as the National Year of Reading’s latest fictional ‘Go All In’ ambassador!

To celebrate, The Roald Dahl Story Company has partnered with the National Literacy Trust to create fun, free activity sheets to help curious minds Go All In on the things they love throughout August. If Matilda’s into it, she reads into it - so complete the activities, dive into inspired book recommendations, and let the reading adventures begin!

Share the magic: Post your creations using #MatildaSummerofStories on Instagram for a chance to be featured by The Roald Dahl Story Company on the roald_dahl account!

The National Year of Reading is a nationwide campaign that aims to reignite the joy of reading, showcase the immediate benefits it brings and re-define what it means to be a reader in an inclusive and accessible way. Find out more about the campaign at goallin.org.uk.
