Free Comic Book Day – 7th May 2022

Free Comic Book Day will take place on May 7th this year. The idea is simple, you walk into a participating shop, ask them if they have any free comics available and hopefully walk out with your choices.
Not every shop selling comics and graphic novels is taking part so it’s worth checking the shop list at the address below. Make sure you look in the International List.

Barrington Stoke

Barrington Stoke are publishers who focus on reading material for young people with dyslexia. They have put together a list of useful resources for home schooling under lockdown. It pops up as soon as you go to their home page.

They also brought a lot of their free activities together here:

We know these are strange and uncertain times for all of us – we hope everyone is keeping well. To help anyone teaching remotely or homeschooling, we’ve pulled together all of the free resources we have on offer. From reading guides to colouring-in sheets, our Young Editors Scheme to crafty activities, there’s something for everyone.
