Psst... have you heard?

Little Library is open!

A whole world made just for kids, Little Library is a place where stories hide in unexpected places, curiosity is always welcome and imaginations are free to wander, wonder and discover. 

Designed for children aged 0 to 11, it is a space to read, talk, sing and play, helping little people grow a lifelong love of books, stories and learning. Inspired by Words Grow Minds research into early childhood development, Little Library brings together the very best of reading, play and discovery in one joyful space. Visitors can browse and borrow from a carefully chosen collection of much-loved children's books, settle in for a story, join a song, enjoy a quiet moment with a stack of favourites or simply explore at their own pace.
