A variety of activities are taking place across Bolton to mark World Book Day next month.

 

World Book Day will take place on March 2.

At Bolton Library and Museum there will be a selection of classic stories told by storytellers, with a special guest appearance.

It will start from 4pm onwards and be ran at the library in Crompton Place Shopping Centre.
