This Christmas how about taking part in the National Literacy Trust's project to help young people who don't have books at home be able to enjoy the gift of a book?  



Merry Christmas from the National Literacy Trust

We'd like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and thank you for your support this year. We also bring you news of the launch of our Christmas Gift of Reading campaign.


One in seven children in the UK does not have a book of their own.
This Christmas, you can help.
Buy the Gift of Reading for your book-loving friends or family and help the National Literacy Trust give disadvantaged children books to keep.
You will also receive an exclusively designed Christmas card.
 
§  A £7 Gift of Reading means a child could choose a book of their own to keep
§  A £20 Gift of Reading means a child could choose three books of their own to keep
§  A £60 Gift of Reading means three children could choose three books of their own to keep
The National Literacy Trust supports children to choose books for themselves and develop a life-long love of reading. Children who read outside of school and enjoy reading reach a better level at school than those who do not. With good literacy skills, these children will go on to reach their full potential.
Gift-buyers can choose from the popular “Suzy Goose” Christmas card as designed by author and illustrator Petr Horacek, or “The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe” card, which features one of the most popular BookBenches from the National Literacy Trust’s Books about Town campaign, as seen in London, summer 2014.
