You could win £5,000 of National Book Tokens for your school’s library – and if your entry is picked, you’ll also get £100 of National Book Tokens to spend on yourself!

Whether you work in a school or have school-aged children yourself, you’ll know the importance of a good school library – and not just for learning. Studies show that reading for pleasure doesn’t just give children an advantage academically; it can improve their wellbeing, too.
