This full activity pack brings together resources for all 18 World Book Day £1/€1.50 books for 2026.
Each book has its own activity sheet, designed to help children enjoy reading, talk about books, and explore stories in playful, accessible ways. Schools, settings, and families can use the activities flexibly, either alongside the books or as stand-alone prompts for reading for fun.
Why it works
The activities are designed to:
- Support reading for pleasure, not assessment
- Encourage talk, imagination, and curiosity
- Help children make personal connections with books
- Offer low-pressure ways to explore stories together
Because each activity sheet is flexible, adults can adapt them for classrooms, libraries, or reading at home.
What’s included
The pack includes 18 individual activity sheets, one for each £1/€1.50 book. Every sheet features:
- Three reading recommendations linked to the book
- Book chat prompts to support discussion and shared thinking
- Games and creative activities inspired by the story
- Sensory and extension activities from My Kind of Book
Activities are tailored to each title and work across a range of ages and settings.
