More fun ideas!

  • It doesn't need to be Book Week for you to find great books: the Children's Choices list is available all year round. Kids across the country pick their favorite books each year, and about 100 books make the cut. You can find the lists from other years here - come find out what other kids think are the best books of the past few years!

  • Come test your skills with our Children's Book Week puzzles!

  • Great authors have started a story... come help them finish the tale with our Story Starters!

  • Download the official Children's Book Week bookmark, or make your own charmed bookmark. Better yet, do both!

  • Tell your teacher or librarian to check out our page for teachers and librarians - they'll get great ideas there for how to celebrate Book Week in your school.
