World Book Day distributes a £1/€1.50 book token to children across the UK and Ireland via schools and early years settings, redeemable at participating booksellers.

Children can swap their token for any one of the specially published World Book Day £1 books completely free, or put it towards £1 off any other full-price book.

Tokens and the accompanying titles are available from mid-February to mid-March each year, and the £1 books are also published in braille, large print and audio formats.
