Meet the Children's Book Project!

This registered charity is working across the UK to redistribute thousands of new and gently used books to children and their families. When you donate a book, you are helping the project create a fairer society where every child owns books and loves to read.

Just one book donation can impact a child's entire reading journey. Hania, Year 3 said: "I really loved the experience of choosing my own books because I could choose any book I wanted and they were free! When I had to choose from the book hut I was very excited as there was a book that I really liked and I got it!

"I had seen it on Google. It’s about Charlie who was living in the chocolate factory and his family needed more food so W***y Wonka and Charlie travelled in a glass elevator. It got stuck. I am still reading it and am on Chapter 11. "

There’s always that one stand-out story from every book worm’s childhood that first got them hooked on the rush of turning the page and starting a new chapter.

Talking point! 💬

It's up for debate. How do you feel about pets in cafés? Do you enjoy a pet-friendly spot for lunch, or does it put you off when you see that a café allows pets?

Let us know in the comments below. Our favourite responses will be published in the next Talking Point section of The People's Friend magazine.

Meet the Children's Book Project!

The Children’s Book Project is a registered charity, working across the UK to redistribute thousands of new and gently used books to children and their families.

When you donate a book to child to the project, you’re not just sharing a story but the chance for children to build confidence and imagination. With over 500k books distributed last year, we’re proud to be championing the cause for our Love Darg Books campaign.
