PRESS RELEASE (ENGLISH)
Book Depository Partners with Uncle Siu to Launch its First English Reading Week in Hong Kong
Bookdepository.com and Uncle Siu present a week-long video series introducing the beloved teacher’s most-loved books, just in time for the Hong Kong Book Fair
Hong Kong loves to read, but it can be tough to find a wide variety of English books in the city – especially for readers who want to explore material above and beyond the latest bestsellers. In order to support voracious Hong Kong readers in learning English, revisiting the classics or just curling up with a book they love, Book Depository, an international online book retailer offering over 16 million English books with free delivery, is partnering with local Hong Kong influencer Uncle Siu to launch the Uncle Siu English Reading Week from 19 to 25 July, coinciding with the Hong Kong Book Fair.
During the Uncle Siu English Reading Week, local influencer Uncle Siu will post one video per day introducing his favourite English books. Uncle Siu is not only an avid reader but also a much-loved linguistics expert who has won over English and Cantonese audiences online with his funny, educational content about learning languages.
In partnership with Book Depository, Uncle Siu is ready to kick off the Uncle Siu English Reading Week and get people in Hong Kong excited about reading, “I love reading and I use a lot of books in teaching. I’ve been using Book Depository for more than 10 years. It’s the best online bookstore in the world, bar none. You can find any books you can think of that are virtually impossible to find in brick-and-mortar stores.”
Uncle Siu’s favourite books will each fall into one of the following categories:
1. English learning books that can help students take their language learning to the next level.
2. Storybooks that have been cherished by children and their parents for generations.
3. Writing guides to boost students’ ability to construct arguments and organise an essay.
4. The classics, which have an important place on any literature lover’s bookshelf.
5. Lesser-known classics from authors that are less notorious, but no less exciting to read.
6. Culturally English books that offer insights into the English language and the way of life in Britain.
7. General interest books that Uncle Siu simply loves to read for fun.
Which books will Uncle Siu choose as his favourites? To find out, visit the Book Depository website (bookdepository.com) from 19 to 25 July. A new video from Uncle Siu will be posted each day to celebrate Uncle Siu English Reading Week and reveal his favourite English books. What’s more, customers who view the videos will get an exclusive coupon code for an extra 10% off Book Depository’s already low prices across millions of books during the Book Fair period from 19 to 25 July.
At the Hong Kong Book Fair, look out for Book Depository representatives standing outside the event on 19 and 20 July. They will be handing out Book Depository’s bookmarks and specially designed folders for a further 5% off on the Book Depository website.
Customers simply need to visit bookdepository.com and apply their coupon code at check out to take advantage of the discounts. And with free delivery on all orders, it is a no brainer!
