The practitioners thought sharing these books would be a lovely way to give back and engage with the local community, through a shared love of reading.
They have said they hope the children in Andover have a “fantastic time searching for these books” and find “joy in reading them”.
They also hope it will be something that “anyone can contribute towards” and “hopefully become part of something really wonderful”.
