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.
