Ultimate Children’s Bookcase GIVEAWAY!

I have an exciting giveaway for you! Tidy Books has agreed to give one JustChildrensBooks.com reader a beautiful children’s bookcase (MSRP $179). Winner will get to pick the color that best matches their decor. This slimline bookcase holds up to 85 children’s books and stores them forward facing because we all know kids judge books by their covers. And let’s face it, many of us do too!

BUT THERE’S MORE…

To make this giveaway even more fantastic, a number of authors & kidlit fans have agreed to add the following children’s books to the prize:

Winner will take it all! I’m jealous – check out all those autographed books! This instant library is sure to bring a giant smile to any child. Directions to enter are below but in the meantime, designer and founder of Tidy Books, Geraldine Grandidier tells us her story behind the case:

The Tidy Books story began in 2004 in the UK when I was looking for a bookcase for my young daughter Adele, and I found I just couldn’t buy the bookcase I had in mind. I wanted a practical, compact bookcase that would be easy for her to use independently, and that would show the books’ front covers.

Originally from Paris, I moved to train at the renowned Newark School of Violin Making, and then worked at the Royal Academy of Music. After which, I set up my own business making violins, violas and cellos for professional musicians.

Traditional bookcases (decorated or not) for children simply made no sense to me. Adele’s books, like most children’s books were outsize, differently shaped and hard to keep tidy. As you know, children don’t choose books from the spine but from the cover, and when a child takes a book from a traditional bookcase, the rest collapse.

The idea of a “Tidy Books” bookcase was compelling, so in my spare time, I began designing a new book storage system in my violin workshop. I created the first “Tidy Books” bookcases for myself and friends, who loved them, and so the Tidy Books business was born.
