Lovereading.co.uk Celebrates the Man Booker Prize and National Children's Book Week

London, England (PRWEB) October 4, 2007 -- Lovereading.co.uk (http://www.lovereading.co.uk) has announced that the online literary network will be celebrating several exciting events in October. The main site will be featuring the Man Booker Prize for Fiction by offering interactive elements to help readers connect with the books that make the shortlist, while (Lovereading4kids.co.uk) will be supporting National Children's Book Week.

"Reading is fundamental to the development of children, and countless research shows the links between good reading skills from an early age and future success in life," says Peter Crawshaw of Lovereading. "However, finding books children want to read of authors that excite them can be difficult; the choice is daunting and guidance rather thin on the ground. That's why www.Lovereading4kids.co.uk is such a useful resource during National Children's Book Week: We make finding interesting books easier for parents, no matter what their children's style is."

Lovereading.co.uk will be allowing readers to get more directly involved with the Man Booker Prize for Fiction by offering downloads of the opening extracts of each book that makes the shortlist. The site also traditionally offers an on-site poll where readers can vote on their own choices for prize winners to see if they agree with the competition judges.
