Psst! @wimpykid is at @hayfestival shouting about the brilliance of libraries🥰. And here he is yesterday with pupils at @Abercanaid_Sch ⤵️ We love libraries too! And #LibrariesForPrimaries has transformed 1,000 of them (so far...). Find out more: librariesforprimaries.org.uk
@FranMcBookface Im a prolific re reader. There’s something very pleasurable about picking up a book and knowing you’re going to love it. Also my poor memory for the details helps!
Utterly flabbergasted to see this! @WorldBookDayUK please share your evidence that going to the library doesn’t support reading for pleasure - that’s contrary to everything I’ve seen/read.
Today I need to sell 133 books to pay the bills due on Monday. Any and all help, purchases and RTs hugely appreciated! 📚❤️ Book-ish.co.uk
