Win a book bundle for your school!

All submissions (by card or online) will be entered into our prize draw with one Dundee school set to win a fantastic book bundle for their school library!

Terms and conditions apply. Open to Dundee residents and Dundee schools only. Entry deadline: Friday 21 April 2023. A winner will be drawn at random and their Dundee school (or the Dundee school of their choice) will be notified.

What is Dundee 100 Reads?

Dundee 100 Reads aims to encourage more children to enjoy reading and read more widely, by inspiring them to try books that have been recommended by their friends and neighbours.

We want school children and residents across the city to get involved and submit their most loved children's books to the 100 Reads booklist which will be compiled and shared this summer term to encourage reading over the holidays and beyond.

Dundee 100 Reads is led by Read Dundee, a local campaign by the National Literacy Trust to improve children’s literacy in the city, and is supported by Dundee City Council and the Northwood Charitable Trust.
