Kids - we have a special room with books, toys and beanbags for you and your big people.

Must-haves for little libraries
Books make wonderful gifts for newborns, birthdays, and new and expectant parents.
Just as there are adult ‘classics’ in literature that have stood the test of time, so too with children’s books. How many people still have their favourite childhood books?

Story-time: every Friday at 10.30am and Saturday at 10.30am
Our inviting Children’s Room is a great space for younger bookworms and their families. With comfy bean bags, and story-time (complete with music, singalongs and craft activities) you really can rediscover the magic of childhood.
We are always happy to host pre-school and classroom groups for story-time. Who knows, a special character may even come along... Email childrensroom@unibooks.co.nz or call 03 477 6976

Reading is, after all, the only extra-curricular activity at age 16 that links to future academic and professional success! (Read more about the Oxford University study.)
