World Book Day


The UK’s largest Reading for Pleasure campaign

World Book Day changes lives through a love of books and reading. It offers every child and young person in the UK a £1/€1.50 book token, and publishes a specially-curated list of £1/€1.50 books, available for purchase in February and March.

For World Book Day I manage a programme of author events for children, working with writers such as Lenny Henry, Tom Percival, Sophy Henn, Joe Wicks and Waterstones Childrens Laureate Joseph Coelho.

In 2024 I am additionally managing the distribution of over 100,000 World Book Day books, reaching a targeted readership via local community engagement programmes, prison services, local libraries and food banks.
