The annual Authors’ and Illustrators’ Children in Read online charity book auction is underway for another year and will end next Friday, 15th November 2024.
This is your chance to bid on a signed copy of a book by a favourite author.
Hundreds of authors and illustrators have once again donated signed copies of their books to the charity auction. All proceeds go to BBC Children in Need and bids start at £10.

A signed paperback copy my latest novel, Bella’s Countryside Christmas, is lot 292. Just in case if you fancy placing a bid 🙂
If you place the winning bid, all packaging and posting within the UK is free! If you’re outside the UK, don’t give up hope – if you contact the auction organiser (via the social media channels detailed at the end of this post or by emailing [email protected]) about a specific lot, they will ask the author if they can send it to you.
Successful bidders will be contacted via email after the auction ends on 15th November 2024.
And if you’ve never heard of Children in Need, it’s the BBC’s charity which raises money to help children in the UK be safe, happy, secure and have the opportunities they need to reach their potential.
Please share!
Please help spread word of the auction to anyone you think might like the chance to bid on a signed book by a favourite author.
You can also keep up with the auction’s progress on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. But remember, the auction closes next Friday, 15th November so don’t wait too long to get you bids in!
Thank you and happy bidding!
