Do you love a book so much you want everyone to read it?
World Book Night launched in the UK in 2011 and saw passionate readers across that beautiful country, give 1 million books to light or non readers to spread the joy and love of reading. Reading changes lives and at the heart of World Book Night lies the simplest of ideas and acts - that of putting a book into another person’s hand and saying ‘this one’s amazing, you have to read it’.
Now, it's our time to join the cause.
World Book Night 2012 will be held on April 23 - in the US and the UK - and we’re looking for 50,000 volunteer book givers to hand out 20 copies each - for a total of 1 million free special World Book Night paperbacks!
In order to be a book giver you must be:
Aged 16 or over and a resident of the United States
Able to pick up 20 copies of your book from your local bookshop or library
Committed to giving your books away on World Book Night to non or light readers
Givers will be chosen based on
Where, to whom & why you want to give books away
