A GROUP of children will be taking part in an all-night bedtime reading session tomorrow to celebrate National Bedtime Reading Week.
More than 50 youngsters from Egglescliffe School, Eaglescliffe, will take part in a range of activities to help them keep awake during the event, from 7.30pm to 7.30am.
At midnight they will tuck into pizzas before watching sixth form students take part in drama workshops.
Representatives from Cleveland Fire Brigade and Police will keep the youngsters on their toes when they also pop in for a visit in the early hours.
Ann Robson, library resources technician, said: "I don't think there will be any problem in keeping the children awake.
"There will be non-stop activities to keep them occupied. They are already extremely excited about the event and are looking forward to it immensely.
