AN INDEPENDENT BOOKSELLER BRINGING AUTHORS AND CHILDREN TOGETHER

Author visits for schools

I have arranged hundreds of successful visits over the years and my list of authors, illustrators and poets is huge. I take great pleasure in recommending exactly the right visitor for your school. I take into consideration the age of students, your budget and where you are situated. Having first-hand experience of most of the authors I work with, I can make sure your students have the best experience to encourage reading for pleasure.

I can supply books on a sale or return basis which can be sold at a discount. I produce a professional pdf that you can send to parents. This is in full colour and shows the books, prices, websites and payment information.

I have built exceptional relationships with publishers and authors and frequently work with them offering promotional visits when there are new books published, or authors that publishers wish to introduce to school visits.

Where possible I will come along on the day to help with book signing. For schools that like to organise their own events, I can still supply your books and design a pdf to send to parents.

Supplying books for schools

I am the regular supplier for schools all over the country. Whether your school is a tiny one form entry primary or part of a multi-academy group I can help. I aim to offer an exceptional service, combined with competitive discounts. Prices are normally lower than online retailers and I go the extra mile to help. Delivery is very often next day without a delivery fee.

I understand that teachers and librarians are super busy during the day so I am happy to chat through requirements at a time to suit you.

As I am an independent bookseller, I have an overview of all publishers. If you need suggestions for topics, class reads or library books, I can put together lists including the very latest and most popular titles.

Schools I regularly supply include:

Dulwich, Cranbrook
Saint Ronans, Hawkhurst
New Beacon, Sevenoaks
Thomas’s, London Day Schools
Maidstone Grammar School
Notre Dame, Cobham
