One Book Was All it Took

 

IMPORTANT UPDATE 28/01/25

We are experiencing an influx of late orders. We understand school starts that today. If you placed your order between Thursday and Midday Saturday, and haven't received a message to say that your order is ready, we are working as hard as we can to get your order ready today.

New orders placed from Midday Saturday onwards will be added to the queue and picked in order of receival. We will do our very best to get your order ready as soon as we can, however there may be a wait of 2 to 3 days. If you choose to order we will send you a processing message then a second message that states 'order is ready' once it's ready for pickup. .

Please be patient with our staff. We had 30 staff working over the back-to-school period to get orders ready and we are really proud of what they achieved. Some of them have now returned to school and university so we have a much smaller staff onboard today. If an item on your order is out of stock, it will be backordered for you and noted on the paperwork supplied with your order.

Open Monday Tuesday Friday from 8am-4pm. Open Wednesday Thursday from 8am-5pm.Open Saturday from 8am - 12pm closing strictly at midday.

Find out how reading just one book can lead to a brand-new library in this lively chain-reaction story about actions and their consequences – however unintended they may be!

Violet has searched her room high and low, but just can’t find a book she hasn’t read before. She wishes her town had a library; a magical place full of adventure where she would never run out of stories to discover. But alas, on this particular rainy day, the only unfamiliar book she can find is the one propping up the kitchen table. Dad won’t miss it, right?... 

With a CLATTER and a CRASH, Violet’s actions set in motion an unstoppable chain of events that soon has the whole town in chaos! Young readers will delight at the playful, colourful illustrations, while learning an important lesson about how actions lead to consequences. The story also introduces children to the wonder of libraries, while highlighting their vital role in fostering literacy.

One Book Was All it Took is the perfect tongue-in-cheek adventure story to share with budding bookworms. From the hilarity of the chaos that Violet causes, to the heart-warming reminder of the important role libraries have played in many of our lives, readers of all ages will find joy in this vibrant book. It is also an excellent introduction to the concept of how our actions can affect others, an important lesson for all young ones – especially Violet!
