Dulwich Books, Moon Lane Books in Forest Hill and Tales on Half Moon Lane are among ten shops collecting used and unwanted books as gifts for children without many of their own.

The campaign is running until this Saturday (July 11) as part of the Children’s Book Project’s aim to put more than 50,000 books into children’s homes during the COVID crisis.

Customers can still donate their gently used books in dedicated book bins inside the shops – just look for the homing pigeon motif.
