Skipping to Sammy's Beat - Read to the Beat!
June 5th, 2026Skipping to Sammy’s Beat has been selected for The Reading Agency's Read to the Beat! 2026 Summer Reading Challenge. This year’s theme, Read to the Beat!, celebrates the joy of music and the power it has to move, inspire and connect us – all through the magic of reading.
Sammy loves to splash in puddles, dangle from trees, look for ladybirds and skip and dance down the path to her very own beat.
TAP, DA-DUM, TAP, TAP, DA-DUM!
But when Sammy turns five, she feels silly wearing her tutu and gumboots and so she stops dancing altogether. Eventually, Sammy can’t hear her beat any more - the very beat that makes her special. How does Sammy find her beat again?
