Malorie will be working with Frank Cottrell-Boyce to select books for children for LoveMyRead, a new book subscription service which launches today, 3 September 2020.
Tom Walker, founder and c.e.o. of LoveMyRead, said: “As a busy father of two, I know how tricky it can be finding time to choose a book. LoveMyRead will take the stress out of it. Having Malorie help select the best titles in a month is something really special – and who wouldn’t love a beautiful surprise box delivered each month! I’m proud to help get more books to more people and help schools too. We all need something to look forward to after a difficult year and LoveMyRead comes at the perfect time.”
Malorie said: “Stories mean so much to me, they always have. When I was Children’s Laureate, my remit was to get children reading more and that’s still my mantra. It’s the reason I write and it’s the reason I love to read and recommend. Stories come in many forms and our aim over the coming months is to bring a wide selection of stories that will entertain and delight. LoveMyRead is something special. I just wish it had been around when I was growing up.”
