Aardman Animations Ltd 2005 [www.aardman.com]

The 2006 Great Reading Adventure ran from 5 January to 25 March.

We've been delighted by the response we've had to the project from across the South West region. Thousands of copies of the adult and children's versions of Around the World in Eighty Days have been borrowed from local libraries, and the feedback from borrowers has been very positive. People have liked the quality of the books and the support material produced, and have been enjoying the quizzes, story-telling sessions, puppet shows, creative workshops, family fun-days and other activities that have taken place. A full evaluation report will be available here as a download by autumn 2006.

We will continue to occasionally update the Phileas Blogg page on this site with news of books tracked through the bookcrossing scheme so please still send us your emails and postcards.

The next Great Reading Adventure will begin in January 2007.
