FREE Ladybird books(choose from 100) with Daily Mirror & Sunday Mirror

Sessie

I too got these last year and they were really good.

Would agree with those that said we had a good wait for them to arrive though. The reason given was that they had had a larger than anticipated demand for them (really? free children's books in a NATIONAL newspaper? and you didn't expect many people to want them?!)....

..still, yes, they were really good when they finally DID arrive. My children are still reading theirs - except for the bl~~dy Pirate one which, after seventeen thousand bedtime readings, has "mysteriously disappeared!".

How much are the newspapers does anyone know please as quick sums have just made total £30.66 for 25 books if newspaper 50p each (this may be wrong price). Add on the above postage cost £5.66. I am thinking this is a bit too much for paperback books or if that just because I usually shop in discount book stores

does anyone know if last times one said on the book that it was a copy from the paper?

was thinking they could be good for gifts, to go in hampers. but not sure if it says on the book 'with mirror paper' - if you get what i mean

There is no mention of The Mirror on the outside or inside of the books we have; but where the price would normally appear on the back, it is clearly marked "Not For Resale" (about an inch square)

Last year they were paperback very thin and small, good though. My granny collected the tokens because she buys the paper anyway so fab deal for me! but personally I wouldn't buy the paper just for the books in my opinion it wouldn't be worth it. If you add up the cost of the papers and postage I would rather go on redhouse/the book people site with the money and buy my kids some books they will actually read/be interested in as they never seem to choose the ladybird books off their shelves to read. hth someone
