The number of children in the UK who do not own books is startling. We are currently in the process of establishing ourselves as a small charity that regularly gifts story books to children in EY settings. #powerofstories #literacy #bookgifting #readingforpleasure

‘Up and Down’ is one of our favourite books and we can’t wait to gift these preloved copies to children who will love them #powerofstories #storygifting Oliver Jeffers

A fantastic way to support early reading at home. If you can get involved in getting this charity off the ground follow and like TheStoryGifters or check out their Facebook for more ways to help. facebook.com/The-Story-Gift…
