National Book Tokens

We are proud to have been partners with National Book Tokens and The Booksellers Association for almost 10 years!

Like us, the team at National Book Tokens are passionate about promoting reading for pleasure and encouraging all children to read. To this end, they generously gift National Book Tokens to each school participating in Readathon®, plus lots more as prizes and rewards to schools and teachers who shout from the rooftops about the wonders of reading!

We are delighted to launch our very own Read for Good National Book Token!

Featuring illustrations by our fabulous patron, author and illustrator, Sarah McIntyre, these beautiful Book Tokens will be in Readathon® Thank You packs* from September 2023. (You can find out more about running our reading for pleasure challenge, Readathon, here)
