We have teamed up with HarperCollins to give away £12million of books — and tomorrow is the last day that schools can register.

More than a quarter of all primary schools in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have signed up.

Schools must collect 3,500 tokens, which will be printed in The Sun from Saturday, to receive a box of more than 100 books from the Collins Big Cat reading programme.

Chestnuts school librarian Tanya Efthymiou says: “We encourage the children to read for pleasure and they all get to visit our library.
