World Book Day is a registered charity which promotes reading for pleasure for young children.

Its aim is to offer every youngster their own book and develop a habit for reading. 

A spokesperson for World Book Day said: 'Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income.

'We want to see more children, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, with a life-long habit of reading for pleasure and the improved life chances this brings them.

'Designated by UNESCO as a worldwide celebration of books and reading, World Book Day is marked in over 100 countries around the globe.'
