World Book Night launched in 2011 and saw 20,000 passionate readers across
the UK give 1 million books to spread the joy and love of reading. Reading
changes lives and at the heart of World Book Night lies the simplest of ideas
and acts - that of putting a book into another person’s hand and saying ‘this
one’s amazing, you have to read it’.World Book Night 2012 will be held on April 23 and is once more looking for 20,000 volunteer givers. This year the givers will be distributing 24 copies each (480,000 books) with further books distributed directly to prisons and libraries through charitable partners.
