World Book Day 2026

World Book Day on Thursday March 5 is the perfect time to highlight the importance and joy of reading. Dressing up as book characters, quizzes, writing reviews, craft activities related to books all help to bring a book ‘alive’.

This year is National Year of Reading. Check out great free resources on http://www.worldbookday.com

There are also free activities to accompany many of my own books including Treasure Tower, The Great Griffin Rescue, Chick-a-boo! Unicorn’s Hat and A Scarf and Half. Check them out under teacher resources at http://www.maverickearlyreaders.com
