These cards were created as part of an initiative to help promote reading across the ages. They are designed to be A5 size. I have added a photo with instructions on how to set up the printer for this to happen. I have used them in school but also as part of my reading gift packages I put together in my small business. As technology is a large part of the world we live in I also added a #hashtag to the cards to encourage people to share their love of reading with others and hopefully encourage them to read too. #getintoreadandreview They are also available without the #hashtag in this purchase.
