Oh, glorious month of September! A whole month devoted to reading. What’s not to love? And the nights are drawing in and it’s getting colder: just perfect for snuggling up on the sofa with a good book and a cup of tea.

How to celebrate this month: get a new book, gather a snuggly blanket and something to drink/eat, find a cosy spot, read.

FUN FACT: Did you know that the first written word appeared around 3400BC and the first story was The Epic of Gilgamesh, a ruler of Uruk in Sumeria. The tale was written on clay tablets.
