Five stars for the Bookmark Book Rocket Pack

This academic year we’re doing a big push towards promoting whole school reading cultures in primary schools. As part of this mission, we have created a new initiative called the Bookmark Book Rocket Pack (click here to read more about it and how you can get your hands on a pack).

Our first pack has been specially curated by Assistant Headteacher, Tom Griffiths, who you may already know as @TJGriffiths on Twitter. We asked the Bookmark team and our community of volunteers to read the high-quality and diverse books included in the packs. They then reviewed them on bookmarks and popped them into the packs so that the children reading them could get an idea of what to expect in the story.

Here's what our team and volunteers had to say:

Book:

Loki

Reviewer:

“Think you know Loki? Not like this you don’t! Very funny story about a bad god trying to do good!

Book:

Princess Minna

“Princess Minna’s kingdom is full of magic, adventures and wonderful animals.”

Book:

Book:

Book:

We’re looking forward to schools receiving their Bookmark Rocket Packs and for the children to benefit from all the wonderful resources and books with their schools. If you’re one of these schools, please make sure to tag us on social media!
