My thoughts on #WorldBookDay

[Cassava Republic @CassavaRepublic]

#WorldBookDay is just around the corner! 🌟

In the rush to find your kids the perfect costume, make sure to take a moment to share a story with them, and start that lifelong love of reading early! 📚

@Penwizard I ordered books on 4th and 11th June for Father’s Day and neither have arrived, kids and I are understandably very disappointed what is your return policy?

[Lynette @LynetteLisk]

@Penwizard No sign of my books ordered on the 3rd and 11th June. I’m extremely disappointed as are my children who wanted to surprise Daddy on Father’s Day. What is your refund policy
