World Book Day is a celebration. It’s a day where people of all ages come together to reflect on the importance of reading and literature, and to encourage everyone, especially the younger generations, to embrace the joy of reading.
This year, World Book Day takes place on Thursday, 6th March. As we lead up to it, Alison Griffiths, MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, has launched a short story competition for all primary school children across the constituency. Alison hopes it will encourage many to pick up and read a book, and to feel empowered to write their own creative and imaginative story of a maximum of 250 words.
To take part, parents, carers, or guardians need to email their child’s story to [email protected]. Alternatively, please post the story to Alison Griffiths MP, House of Commons, London, SW1A 0AA. Please remember to include your child’s name, year group, school and address.
Entries must be received on or before Wednesday, 26th February.
