Bookwagon for National Poetry Day

I worked with Bookwagon for National Poetry Day, 28 September 2017. Bronnie approached me having read, ‘Wonderland: Alice in Poetry Collection’ and ‘Reaching the Stars: Poems about Extraordinary Women and Girls.’ She asked me if I would do a day of workshops and talks. Bookwagon kept in touch, ordered my books and liaised with me. They gave me travel advice and collected me from the nearest railway station. They drove me to the school, introduced me to everyone and stayed to support in each of the sessions. They provided presence and support throughout the day, returned me to the station and dealt with all administration and payments very promptly. They had established great contact with the schools and had devised a very efficient method of ordering books. The children had each been given an illustrated list of books from which they could choose. There were hundreds of books for me to sign but because of this efficient organisation, it all went very smoothly. They really impressed me with their knowledge and enthusiasm for books.

Great books for my kids

Bookwagon has been an amazing resource for finding great books for my kids (and their cousins). I have received excellent advice and enjoyed viewing the well curated selections. The books we have ordered have all been brilliant and the service and communication has been first rate

Great things at Bookwagon

We read with our children everyday and now love to read with our grandson. Having books that provide a positive and beautiful representation of different families and people is one of the great things at Bookwagon

Brilliantly curated selection

As a grandparent and auntie to younger children it is hard to find books that are exciting, diverse and offer something more. That’s where Bookwagon come in. With a brilliantly curated selection and great descriptions, finding the right books for little people is a pleasure!

Inspiration

Fed up with Amazon and Waterstones, I was desperate for inspiration for my 6 yr old and picture books. The recommendations from Bronnie were unusual and spot on – each one gives us lots to talk about in such a fun way. My 3 and 1 yr old also had recommendations for books I had not heard of and all love them! The service offered by Bookwagon is so special and one I will be using and recommending again and again.

Favourite books

It was really refreshing to discover Bookwagon and their recommendations for books you don’t hear about every day. The fact that it is teachers recommending good reads based on children’s past favourite books gives me confidence that they will like the books I order and deepen their love of reading.

Newly-published

As a grandmother of two children with lots of books, it is wonderful to have Bookwagon to advise me on the titles of really good newly-published books that meet my grandchildren’s needs. I don’t have to worry that they have already got them, and know they will love them.

Personal touch

Bookwagon is a company with the personal touch. It offers a caring approach with two dedicated bookworms who have clearly read every book out there and can identify the needs of each individual child. Name what your child likes, their age and they know. They are a pleasure to deal with and I would not hesitate to use them again. They are truly unique and go above and beyond with their customer service. Thank you Bookwagon for such a wonderful experience.

Some wonderful books

Thank you for getting our 7 year-old bookworm out of her reading rut and engaged in some wonderful books again. You gave a such a quick and passionate response to my request for help, and a wonderful range of suggestions I had never come across before. Some of the books matched her preferences exactly and she consumed them rapidly. Others stretched her a little whilst staying within the genre she enjoys. The last one really challenged her and we read it together, discussing the issues that it raised and the beautiful use of language. Thank you, we can’t wait to see what you find for us next!

Dealings with Bookwagon

In my dealings with Bookwagon I have been impressed by the overriding commitment to provide children with the high quality books they deserve. The personalised service is second to none and reflects an in-depth knowledge and joy of children’s literature and a genuine desire to match the right book to the right child.

Bookwagon offered

In a world inundated with books it has been difficult for me to find high quality, interesting and varied children’s books for my three children (9,7 and 5). Bookwagon has offered me a unique service by providing bespoke reading choices for my family. The owners have sought to understand my children’s reading habits and likes and dislikes and made numerous fantastic suggestions. Each book recommended and purchased has been enjoyed multiple times and has led to a whole array of discussions. The Bookwagon team have definitely furthered my family’s love of reading and both broadened (in terms of choice) and deepened (in terms of authors) what my children have read. I hope that other parents discover this hidden gem.

Great expertise

Bronnie has long been an impressive font of knowledge on which books will appeal and challenge which ages. By creating Bookwagon with Bob, their joint talents have demonstrated great expertise in the children’s book world. A plea from me to find ‘giraffe’ books for my two year old granddaughter who is entranced by them- Bookwagon delivered! Not one, but several suggestions which ‘ my small person’ has loved! Thank you Bookwagon!

Interest in reading books

It was really insightful to liaise with Bookwagon to get their recommendations for our two children. Our twelve year old’s interest in reading books has been completely reinvigorated after reading some of the suggested titles from Bookwagon. The professionalism and service provided is exemplary and it is so pleasant to deal with people who have a deep and genuine passion for books

"In-passioned"

I hope you know your passion, knowledge and success is so evident, and so pleasing. I knew it myself, of course, all these years, but that came across so strongly and I'm always inspired and "in-passioned", if there is such a word!

Bookwagon is the only UK independent online book seller owned by extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic professionals giving you personal recommendations for your child

Another fantastic selection just arrived today from Bookwagon. I am never disappointed when ordering from here. All books stocked are chosen with great thought for all ages. With Bookwagon’s background and knowledge you can’t go wrong

If anyone asked me to suggest someone who could help them to select literature for a specific person or for a specific reason or just for pleasure, Mrs Bookwagon would be the only person I would recommend.She also understands fully what it is like to be starting out on that journey .Her sensitivity to those who may have encountered obstacles to their learning in literature and to their enjoyment is plain to see.

Bookwagon has given me back some wonderful childhood memories that come to life as I read. I have ordered many magical books for my nephews, nieces, friends’ children and myself. Bookwagon always manage to find the title to fit my needs. I am so glad I’ve found Bookwagon. I will continue to recommend these booksellers to every one I know. It’s truly fab! Get involved people! Save the books!’
