- Three libraries will be celebrating World Book Day next week with some special events based on Tom Percival’s new book for pre-schoolers, Billy’s Bravery. These will take place between 10.30am and 11.30am in Clevedon on Monday (27 February); at the Campus in Weston-super-Mare on Tuesday (28 February); and in Portishead on Thursday (2 March). To book a place, contact one of the three libraries. Children who have not received a £1 World Book Day token at school will be able to collect a free book from their local library when they borrow books on their library card. We hope stock will be delivered to libraries from Monday 6 March and will be available until Friday 31 March, or until stocks last. Find out more about library events on our website.
