Removing stickers from inside books

I'm asking this here as I'm sure someone will have an idea of what I can do :rotfl:
When I was at primary school I was presented with books for various achievements (Good attendance, excellent work etc) and inside the cover of these books are "stickers" for want of a better word. I want to keep the stickers if possible but I don't necessarily want to keep the books so has anyone any ideas how I could remove them without damaging the book or sticker?
Here's a picture so you can see what I'm dealing with, the book is a ladybird one and they're stuck to the inside cover in the majority of cases:rolleyes::

Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

This might take a lot of patience, but I would recommend either an iron on low heat to remove the stickers (it will melt the glue, and allow you to lift easily - and carefully - with a sharp knife).
Alternatively, I use a hairdryer to remove sticky labels from shoes - this might work on stickers on books as well? Heat up the sticker, and it should peel away easily.Errors of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it. - Jefferson0
