World Book Day
Read Manchester teamed up with Transport for Greater Manchester and World Book Day UK for an action-packed World Book Day. Early morning commuters across the Metrolink network were treated to free books on tram seats and for those who missed out, volunteers and Library staff were on hand with more free books at tram stops near to Central, Abraham Moss and Forum libraries. Visiting authors AM Dassu and LD Lapinski, whose books were part of the 2023 World Book Day collection, boarded the tram to give out books and treated children at two schools to visits. Back at Central library, Hannah Gold wowed over 300 primary school children with awe inspiring wild animal facts from her books. Over 10,000 books were gifted on the day! You can read more about the day’s events on the Manchester Library blog.
