Children will be getting breakfast with their books during half term "Cereal Readers" sessions at several local libraries as the popular scheme returns to Sandwell for the half-term holidays.
Cereal Readers is a library initiative in which children and their parents are invited to share a bowl of cereal and a glass of fruit juice as they take part in book related activities at the library during school holidays.
All the refreshments have been provided by local supermarkets and other community groups and all the sessions are run by library volunteers and it has proven popular with local families.
Councillor Syeda Khatun, deputy leader, said: "This is a brilliant idea for young people who love books and like to get along to their local library."
Cereal Readers sessions are taking place from 19 to 23 February at the following libraries.
Blackheath Library – Monday – Friday 9.30am-11am
Glebefields Library Monday – Friday 9.30-10.30am
Rounds Green Library - Monday, Wednesday and Friday 11-11.30am
