This February, I wrapped up books in brown paper & wrote a dating ad style description on the front. Pupils chose a book based on the description. They weren’t allowed to unwrap the book until they left the library. Inside the package was a bookmark for pupils to fill in a book review. One winner was chosen from all the bookmarks that were handed back — they won a box of love heart sweets & a book.
