Looks like it’s time for Sri Lanka to catch up with their favourite Wolf. That’s right, – the Wolf will be back in Sri Lanka for the fourth consecutive year from October 1st – 4th 2020. Book lovers all around the island will once again have access to the popular sale offering 50% - 90% discounted brand-new quality English books.
This year, the sSale will be on an online platform instead of a physical sale to ensure fans across the country stay safe. For the first time, the Online Sale will allow Sri Lankans to have access to a book inventory that is five times the number of books than the on-ground book sales of recent years in Colombo.
Andrew Yap, Co-Founder of Big Bad Wolf Book Sale, commented, “Our mission to further spread the joy of reading and allow access to affordable English books to more people in Sri Lanka is coming to reality. A key element for this year’s sale is the fact that anyone in any part of the island will have access to the Book Sale from the comfort of their own homes. The safety of our customers, staff are our utmost priority and we believe this first-time online experience would truly be an experience that will unite all book enthusiasts across the country.
“This will be a whole new experience for all Sri Lankans as we are creating history by taking the sale online. We hope that the Big Bad Wolf Online Book Sale will script a new era where online book sales become customary in Sri Lanka. Not only that, we expect that our Book Sale would attract more E-consumers to make a bold statement especially here in Sri Lanka,” he added.
Nishan Wasalathanthri, Director of ProRead Lanka (Pvt) Ltd noted, “We hope to further foster this eagerness among the citizens of Sri Lanka to read more and continue to develop the reading culture in Sri Lanka. Books are the gateway to information. Sri Lanka’s keen interest in books and knowledge acquisition is amazing, and the Big Bad Wolf Online Book Sale Sri Lanka 2020 is here to support the country on that interest.”
The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale’s low prices encourage customers to take a chance on new authors and genres they might never have tried before. Book lovers can shop at any time of the day as the Online Book Sale will be available 24 hours.
With their inaugural sale in Sri Lanka held in October 2017, the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale returned in 2018 and 2019 with a “bigger and louder” howl to satisfy Sri Lankan book lovers. All three book sales were acclaimed as massive successes with titles flying off the shelves.

I still remember the day of August 1947 floods, as it was the last school day at Kingswood College Kandy and the height the water soured.
