Sir Mo Farah is helping children engage with books through independent Gloucestershire business, Bring A Book to Life, this July 2021.

Sir Mo Farah is supporting local Gloucestershire business, Bring a Book to Life, by signing postcards and posing for pictures which are set to be included in its Olympic Dreams themed book subscription box in July 2021.

Bring a Book to Life was initially set up during lockdown in 2020, to help get children reading for pleasure with its book subscription box.

Children receive a personally addressed box; a book; letters and signatures from authors; and gift items which directly link to each book. The themed July 2021 box will recognise the importance of the Olympic Games.

There are four categories available for families to subscribe to, with options to suit kids of all reading abilities – ranging from three to 13 years old.

Owner, Kate Andrews, said: ‘It is so kind of Sir Mo Farah to give up his time in support of Bring a Book to Life. As a small business the emergence from lockdown has been hard so a boost like this is just fantastic!’
