Working with World Book Day
Publishers are vital to World Book Day. Thanks to you, World Book Day can bring the transformative power of reading for fun to more children and young people.
We champion the fun of reading, because it seriously improves lives. Our mission is to promote reading for pleasure, offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own. You can read more about World Book Day’s mission and impact here.
