    Pressed thanks in error then.. doh! (not saying you don't warrant a thanks btw :o )

    The Quick read tokens are for adult books, they are to promote adults to read more, they are not for childrens books unforunately.

    They are co-ordinated by Worl Book Day, see the back of your vouchers, and can be offset against any WBD Childrens books, some of the kids books have printed, '£1 or free with £1 off WBD Voucher'. The quickreads voucher can be used as WBD vouchers as the icon on the back states. I got my kids books from Tesco. Good luck xxx:A

  • I sent an email to NIACE yesterday, asking for some vouchers and promo material for my book group and got this in reply:

    "Thank you for your recent enquiry. Due to the high demand, Quick Reads book tokens and promotional packs are now out of stock.

    Plans are already underway to make the 2007 campaign even more successful, confirmed authors so far include Ricky Tomlinson, Kerry Katona, John Simpson and Allen Carr. We welcome your involvement in 2007, please register your interest at http://www.niace.org.uk/quickreads/register.html and we will send you further updates as they become available.

    I've just been onto the NIACE website and you can download a pdf file of the token to print off. Use the link in the previous post and then click on the Book Tokens and Materials tab which will let you download the file. Now all I've got to do is find a shop which still has stock!
