YOUNG bookworms with a passion for reading are being encouraged to join a junior book club for eight to 12-year-olds.

Forget-Me-Not book and toy shop in Common Lane, Culcheth, has lost some of its members who have now started high school and is looking for new recruits for its 'Fun Book and Biscuit Club'.

The group meets on Mondays and the next block of meetings take place on October 20, November 3 and November 17 from 4.30pm to 5.15pm.

As well as discussions on the latest books there are quizzes, crafts and games.

Booking a place costs £20. Call 765187.
