The Monk's Walk School pupils will be celebrating their book week by providing books in WGC town centre.
Adam Lancaster, librarian at the Knightsfield school, said the aim of the project was to share reading in the community.
"We have been given a number of books by publishers and other parties and we are going to be dropping these around the town with the hope that people will pick the books up read them and then either pass them on to someone else or drop them off for another person to pick up and read.
