I guess these guys are also ready to go…

So just over a week ago I turned the key at No. 9 for the final time. So I just wanted to say thank you to those of you who have supported me at The Little Owls Bookshop. I have loved every minute of it, meeting and talking books and much more!!

Now I’ve paused the bricks & mortar location and I’ll continue to work with schools, process customers orders and raise awareness of great books over the coming months as I complete The Chapter that looms ahead.

With gratitude
Clare

📣Calling all young book lovers!!! 📚

The Summer Reading Quest is now OPEN, 🎉a free community reading initiative designed to encourage children to discover the joy of reading throughout the summer holidays.

Registration continues to take place at The Little Owls Bookshop, but will close on Friday 17 July 2026 at 4pm!

Our first Quest gathering will take place on Saturday 18 July at 2.00pm at Caistor Arts & Heritage Centre, with weekly sessions continuing until Saturday 19 September 2026.

The Summer Reading Quest is all about exploring the magic of books together. Children will join a friendly reading community where they can share stories, complete creative challenges and build confidence as readers.

Participants will:

* Sign up to attend the weekly Summer Reading Quest sessions.
* Attend at least 6 of the 10 planned sessions to complete the Quest.
* Borrow and exchange books each week during our group gatherings.
* Receive a Summer Reading Quest Goodie Bag on successful completion.

A specially curated collection of 50 chapter books, graphic novels and non-fiction titles has been selected by booksellers, teachers and young readers. Throughout the Quest, children will explore exciting stories and fascinating facts while taking part in activities designed to spark curiosity, encourage imagination and strengthen reading skills.

At our final celebration on 19 September, every child who has completed the Quest will be able to keep two books from the collection as their own. The remaining books will then be donated to local schools and our Little Free Library, ensuring many more children can continue to enjoy them.

To register, families simply need to sign up at The Little Owls Bookshop by Friday 17 July 2026 at 4pm.

Just 7 days until we close. ❤️📚

This week has been full of emotions, but one thing has brought me so much joy… watching beautiful books find their next home.

Every time someone leaves with a stack of stories, I imagine them being read at bedtime, shared between siblings, discovered under a blanket with a torch, or revisited years from now when they’re a little older.

That’s exactly what books are meant for—to be loved, shared and returned to again and again.

If you’ve been meaning to pop in, I’d love to see you before I close. Whether you’re looking for a summer read, a gift, or a story that will become a family favourite, every purchase means we continue to inspire the joy of reading.

Our Summer Clearance Sale is continuing, with up to 30% off.

Thank you to everyone who has visited, every kind word, and every book you’ve given a new bookshelf to call home. It means more than I can say.

With gratitude
Clare 🦉💚

Either way we’d love to see you, plus it’s a good opportunity get your… dare I say it “Christmas shopping” started… or just top up the go to gift box 🎁
