World Book Day

Our World Book Day campaign was valid between 1-8 March and now finished. Thank you for your interest. Please keep visiting us for more bargains and great deals. 

World Book Day, a time whereby reading is highlighted, encouraged and supported. World Book Day was designed so that every child around the world gets the chance to receive a book of their own, a day where we cherish and give thanks to all the wonderful authors and illustrators and the aim to place a book on the hands of every young person out there. Put in place by UNESCO, it is a celebration of reading on a global level and a reminder on the importance of reading! Books 2 Door and World Book Day’s mission aligns well in the sense that we want to provide great books for every child. Year by year, we help promote World Book Day by running giveaways and special campaigns that help spread the word of reading and this year 2020, we are happy to be stocking the newest titles like Split, The Kissing Booth, The Case of the Drowned Pearl, Evie in the Jungle and Kid Normal and the Loudest Library. In The Case of the Drowned Pearl, the story talks about a famous professional swimmer called Antonia Braithwaite who drowned and laying on the beach. It is up to the Detective Society to solve this case and find out why guests at the nearby hotel wanted Antonia dead. 

In Evie in the Jungle, the 12 year old Evie has a special ability, the skill to communicate with animals. Evie can hear what animals are thinking and she can talk to them with just her mind. Author Matt Haig and award winning illustrator Emily Gravett combines their teamwork skills to present us with this golden story book. FInd out the journeys of the pink dolphins, sloths, and the mysterious life of the Jaguar. To put World Book Day into perspective, this special celebration has gifted £1.03 million worth of books in 2020 just in the UK and Ireland in just 5 weeks! Encouraging at least 25,000,000 minutes of shared reading. 66% of primary schools have now said that World Book Day changed their reading habits.
