Bags of Books is an independent bookseller that has been supplying quality, inspiring books to schools all over the country for over 20 years.

On this site we have compiled our recommended books lists for schools on many different topics and themes. The lists are regularly added to and updated, ensuring you’re getting access to the most up-to-date and relevant texts for your classroom or library.

As well as saving teachers time and effort we also aim to save you money. We will endeavour to always offer the best discount available to ensure we are very competitively priced. It is usually better value to buy from us than through publishers or on-line.

What Others Are Saying.....

Thanks so much for another year of great books!… We’ve particularly enjoyed the monthly book subscription service, which ensures we have all the hot new releases from the authors the children love!

Mrs Ellis, Cookbridge C of E Primary School

For recommended reading on a wide variety of topics and themes, check out the Book Lists:

One way that teachers can inject some vitality into the school's reading areas, and create a stunning library that will inspire your pupils, is to sign up to one of our Books of the Month subscriptions.

For a flat fee we select a range of 10 books suitable across the primary year groups. We tailor the selections to your needs. So, if you’re a pre-prep, infant or junior school, or only want the new books for 1 or 2 specific year groups, you can let us know when you subscribe to this service.

Books are delivered to your school during the first week of the month. If you have specific delivery requirements just let us know.
Working with schools across the country we provide book parcels for children who attract pupil premium funding. This is a service that increasing numbers of schools have asked for as they try to encourage reading for pleasure.

By providing a child with ‘A Book of Their Own’ you can help close the gap between those who have access to books at home and those who don’t. By using Pupil Premium Funding to give exciting, accessible, relevant and fun books you promote Reading For Pleasure and allow children to feel confident around books and proud of book ownership.
Our Quote Me feature allows you to select individual books from our catalogue and add them to a quote list. Simply click on the + icon to add the book to you quote.

Once you have selected all your books, view the quote list and adjust the number of books that you want us to quote for. Give us your details and submit the form. We will get back to you with a quote for your chosen books.
