The Books & Pieces Story

We’re here to help turn your little people into big book lovers.

Established in 2012, we’ve grown to become one of the UK’s leading independent online children’s bookshops.

Books & Pieces was founded by Amanda after she became a mum. A big book lover herself, she wanted books to be an integral part of her children’s upbringing but was blown away by the range, quality and cost of books available!

Which is how the Books & Pieces story started…

Amanda began by selling at local tabletop sales and book parties when she was heavily pregnant with her second son (she now has three!). Before long the range had expanded to include toys and gifts featuring favourite book characters, and Books & Pieces became a regular fixture at UK Baby Shows up and down the country.

In 2018 the Storybook Subscription was launched, providing a brilliant value children’s book subscription, with different age groups from 0-5 plus a family book subscription tailored to the ages of each family.

Our range of stock has continued to grow to what we believe is the best collection of book-based toys, gifts, games and resources for under-6s.  

We’re working with a growing list of nurseries, schools and other children’s groups, not only supplying them but also helping them raise funds through our Bookstore on Tour Virtual Book Fairs.

It’s our mission to bring joy to little book lovers through fun and engaging books, toys and resources; and our aim to have books on our shelves that help your little people understand the world around them and support them through the stages, changes and challenges of life.

Based in West Yorkshire, we’re proud to work with a local warehouse team who pick and pack your orders, whilst the administration and everything else is managed by Amanda with help from a small team of mums spread across the UK working flexibly around their family commitments.
