Hi everyone 👋

I just wanted to pop on and say sorry I’ve been a bit quiet lately.

After a lot of thought, I’ve decided to bring my Usborne journey to an end. With my youngest starting nursery in September, I’ll be returning to work full time, and I simply won’t have the time to give this the attention it deserves.

Going forward, I’ll just be selling from my remaining stock.

It’s also become increasingly difficult to compete with larger retailers who are able to offer the books at lower prices.

I’ve absolutely loved being part of this - helping get more books into children’s hands and, of course, building up a lovely collection for my own children and family too 🥰

Thank you all so much for your support along the way - it really has meant a lot. I hope you understand my decision 💛
