The Duchess of Cornwall marked World Book Day 2022 by launching a new children's section of The Reading Room, first established in January 2021 and described as a 'thriving online community.

.. which helps readers and non-readers to find books they will love', also featuring book recommendations from The Duchess of Cambridge. Camilla commented 'Reading for pleasure is, we know, the biggest indicator of a child’s future success - more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income. And yet there are still approximately 400,000 children in our country who don’t have a book of their own. World Book Day is a brilliant way to prove how much fun and escapism can be found in a good book'.
