Not sure what to read next @LEHSchool? Head to the LRC and ask the amazing Ms Pearce to make you a book recommendation; can’t wait to read this sequel to Brandon Sanderson’s ‘Skyward’ over the weekend 😃📚✨#reading #books #readingcommunity #readingforpleasure

This is a 'first day back' poem. You ask for a string of metaphors about the past year - what flower, what book, what smell, what light - then for an image for today. Annie was starting Year 8. There is always hope.

Had the privilege of seeing Young People’s Laureate @ceciliaknapp live a few years ago. ‘There’s that amazing feeling when you open a book and you read something and you see yourself and your own life reflected...you feel that your experience is valued and seen.’ #WorldBookDay

"What about a story?" said Christopher Robin.
"What about a story?" I said.
"Could you very sweetly tell Winnie-the-Pooh one?"
"I suppose I could," I said. "What sort of stories does he like?"
"About himself. Because he's that sort of Bear."~A.A.Milne #WorldBookDay #WinnieThePooh

[World Book Day UK 📚 @WorldBookDayUK]

Books can take you anywhere - we couldn't agree more with @Zoologist_Jess on that!

"Isn't that the most amazing thing about books? You can just be sat at home, reading, but you can be anywhere in the world - in this world, or another one."

"Seeing how vital it is to have that time where I share a story with my sons, and see them learn and enjoy... it's such a huge part of a kid's education. It's massively important, which is why it's such a huge honour to be a children's author." @TomFletcher

Kicking off #WorldBookDay with our smallest, largest, longest and rarest.

This is the 'German ABC' published in 1971. At just 3x2.5 mm it was once the smallest book in the world.

It is NOT the smallest in our collection.

‘My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath...' Mrs Mackichan’s recommendation for #WorldBookDay #WutheringHeights #Brontë @LEHSchool 📚✨

[LEHEnglish @LEHEnglish]

Songs of Innocence and Experience: ‘Each poem is, in itself, a work of concision, of vision, and of genius, but taken as pairs, and then as a collection...a volume of ideas and meditations on life, they are almost without parallel.’ Dr James #WorldBookDay

[LEHEnglish @LEHEnglish]

‘Reading Virginia Woolf for the first time as an undergraduate blew my mind. Her use of the stream of consciousness narrative mode completely reframed my understanding of what a novel could do and be. She’s still one of my favorite authors.’ Mrs Moon #WorldBookDay #Woolf 🤯✨😍

[World Book Day UK 📚 @WorldBookDayUK]

The magic of books, expressed perfectly by 2021 #WorldBookDay author Katherine Rundell:

"With reading you can learn anything about everything. I can think of no better way to transmit hope and delight and adventure to people who you can't physically reach, than through a book."
