BBC Raw - Quick Reads/Children's Books/DVD

Posts: 147 Forumite
This is my first freebie post so I apologise if someone's already posted about this (I did a search, but other posts only mention the children's books).
Awhile ago I filled out this form (I didn't get the link from here, just stumbled across it while browsing the BBC site): http://www.bbc.co.uk/raw/getinvolved/rawswaps/
Today I got a HUGE package full of stuff - 6 of the Quick Reads books, 3 children's books, a DVD of BBC comedies, a big poster, a cardboard thing you can make bookends out of, and a few other bits.
The idea with the books is that you write a little review (they give you loads of stickers to do this with), then leave them somewhere to be picked up by someone else (same idea as BookCrossing). But if you like the books and want to keep them you can do that instead.
Anyway, this is the best freebie I've got this year!
