Celebrate World Book Day with this exciting 51-page activities pack!

Based on exploring characters, story worlds and the idea of travelling by book, the pack includes lesson plans for Years 1 and 2, Years 3 and 4 and Years 5 and 6, with downloadable worksheets and additional resources.

There’s also everything you need to set up a role play ‘travel by book’ agency for your class, year group or school, enabling children to develop interpersonal, literacy and maths skills as they discover and share even more stories.

Plus, you can organise a whole-school ‘Story Event’ activity for World Book Day itself – again, with everything you need to plan and deliver it provided… just add books!
