It’s that time of year again… World Book Day – the biggest worldwide celebration of authors, illustrators, books and reading – is upon us! Children (and parents) up and down the country will be putting the finishing touches to their costumes and librarians and teachers everywhere will be frantically going about their last-minute preparations (or is that just us?).

You can follow the conversations on twitter by searching for #ckg18 #WoBoD #WorldBookDay and #BestChildrensBooks
