You may remember that we launched our biggest competition yet for primary schools across Sussex at the beginning of March for World Book Day.
They say “never judge a book by its cover”, and while this may be true, there are those among us that will always look at the illustrations of a children’s book before even reading the blurb. We’ve handpicked a selection of our favourite illustrators and the books which showcase their most magnificent illustrations. In a lot of cases, its the perfect illustrations that make the books truly timeless.

Here at World of Books, we want to read as many of the big books of the year and in 2011 & 2012, no one could have been prepared for the phenomenon that the Fifty Shades Trilogy became. It’s the book that divided opinions across the world. So, we thought why not review this book, in a way that will make you chuckle. Maybe we shared a few of the same thoughts.

Terry Pratchett sold over 85 million books to his name, in a career that spanned 40 years. He is probably most well-known for the fantastical Discworld Series, with the final novel The Shepherd’s Crown being published 5 months after the author’s death in 2015.
Here at World of Books, we’re proud of our achievements and have been very lucky to have been shortlisted for a number of awards over the years – and we’ve won a few too! Today it was announced that we’ve won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2017. The Queen’s Award for Enterprise recognises and celebrates business excellence in the UK.
