As part of the BBC's RaW campaign, BBC presenters in the South West have become storytellers. They have told the story of Max and Lara and their adventures in space. The characters have been introduced to help parents and children enjoy bedtime reading together. Max and Lara are two young space travellers who meet strange and funny friends during their adventure.  | | Story time with Justin Leigh |
The book, available free to parents, is more than just a reading experience. There are games to play, activities to take part in and stickers to collect. RaW is the BBC's biggest ever campaign. It aims to help adults across the UK improve their reading and writing. RaW is for everyone (did you know there are 12 million adults in the UK who struggle with reading and writing)? However, there is a special focus on families. Duncan Warren's Evening Programme has been featuring the adventures of the two young heroes of the Galaxy, with a series of guest readers.
