Norfolk Children's Book Centre
Norfolk Children's Book Centre has been established now for almost 40 years, in beautiful rural North Norfolk, in the garden of founder and owner Marilyn Brocklehurst. Starting the shop from just a few boxes of books, the collection now runs to nearly 50,000 books. We carefully review and select the best books from over 70 publishers. We pride ourselves on the quality of our stock and our knowledge and expertise in the area of children's literature. Ask our wonderful team of ex-Teachers, Librarians and Book Enthusiasts for a recommendation and they will bring you a tailored selection of books for you to peruse at leisure.
If you would like to support us from wherever you are in the world and can't physically visit the shop, do consider supporting us via our Bookshop.org shop front. Bookshop.org supplies books on our behalf and you can search for any book in print or peruse our digital bookshelves by browsing our lists. We are constantly updating our recommended book lists with the best new books so you can be sure that you will find our latest favourites in our book lists. If the book you want to order does not show as available on Bookshop.org, please get in touch with us directly - the stock on Bookshop.org does not always reflect our current stock at NCBC and we may be able to supply the books you want directly from our shop.
