The AwesomeBooks School Literacy Initiative

At AwesomeBooks we love reading and know what a positive impact it can have on a Childs life. Back in 2010 we visited Ghana and in 2011 we gave books to schools in South Africa.

Schools in the UK are facing budget cuts to libraries at the moment so we decided to extend the scheme to give a book to every child from schools that applied.

UK School Donations

Here are the books we’ve donated to schools and nurseries so far, we are always adding more so be sure to check back to see all causes we have helped.

Stockham primary school

Stockham primary school was holding a whole school assembly to give out the books the day after our visit.

Here is what they said in their newsletter:

We have been lucky enough to receive a selection of books from 'Awesome Books', an online new and used bookseller and recycler based in Wallingford, who have recently been running a free books for schools initiative. We hope the children across the school will enjoy reading these over the next few months.
