JUNGLE themed activities take place at Bradford libraries from today, to mark national Bookstart Week.

The theme is based on Giles Andreae's picture book Rumble in the Jungle.

Events will start with a celebration at Bradford City Library today at 10am.

Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe, Bradford Council's executive member for education, skills and culture, said: "These events are great at encouraging young children and their families into our libraries to see what is on offer.

"Introducing books to children at a young age opens a whole new world and encourages them to develop a lifelong love of books and reading."
