Add some extra magic

All our books come with the option of glorious gift wrap. Choose from a simple sleeve or gift box. Bonus feature: the boxes love a second life as something so imaginative only a child could dream it up. Fantastic Mr Box, anyone?

The power of personalisation

You can personalise your story with the name of the child and choose their character. Not only does it look super-cool (and it does), but it also has heaps of benefits, from boosting reading confidence to increasing self-esteem. We’ve even done studies about it.
