World Book Day

Jamie Stone says celebrating World Book Day is 'more critical than ever'

Far north MP Jamie Stone spoke of his love of reading as he signed a parliamentary motion marking 25 years of World Book Day.

Celebrating World Book Day is not just about dressing up as your favorite character from a book, it's about promoting literacy and the importance of reading in our society. With the rise of technology and digital distractions, it's more critical than ever to encourage people, especially children, to pick up a book and immerse themselves in the world of storytelling.
