About Booked Up
Booked Up is a national programme run by Booktrust and supported by the Department for Children, Schools and Families.
Booked Up’s goal is to encourage and support reading for pleasure by providing each Year 7 pupil in England with a free book from a list of 12 specially selected titles. Click here to see this year’s booklist.
Last year’s programme was a huge success with over 672,000 children receiving their free Booked Up book. In November, five regional events were held at which Year 7s had the opportunity to meet some of the 2008 Booked Up authors.
Have a look around our website and find out more about this year’s Booked Up books and authors. Check out other Year 7 reviews to help you make your choice, enter our competitions, or write your own review of your Booked Up book.
Booktrust is an independent charity dedicated to encouraging people of all ages and cultures to engage with books and the written word.
