The Big Book Bubble has been in Redbridge Central Library, Clements Road, Ilford, since last month, with installations based on children’s books.

It is designed to inspire families to take part in the Summer Reading Challenge and is also part of the Redbridge Cultural Olympiad.

The book bubble, which gives children the chance to go to the shops in Milly Molly Mandy’s village and jump on Max’s bed from Where the Wild Things Are, will be at Redbridge Central Library until today.
