🤩🤩 Summer Sale is HERE 🤩🤩

Time to grab yourselves some bargain books and activities!! Such an amazing range in this sale! Up to 50% off!!!

All sale books are in the "special offer" section of the website.

I have set up an event which will run until 5pm on the 8th August. If you would like your books sent direct to you, please fill in your address when ordering and you will receive before the event ends (postage charge applies), failing that if you decide to have them come to me (no delivery charge) please note that this will be after the 8th of August for either collection or delivery by me.

Thank you to Mearns Academy for having me today for your summer fayre 🏫
A total of 38 books are now in the hands of some lovely young people.
I met some lovely people, and in particular an elderly gentleman who visited but said he didn't need any books but my stall was looking really lovely 💜 That comment made me smile 😊
