Surprise Books in a Box

A Surprise Box of Books may be one of our favorite things to put together for you at The Story Shop. As booksellers, we love to recommend books; there is little like the joy of putting beloved titles into reader’s hands. A Surprise Box of Books is book recommendations par excellence.

  • Choose the amount you wish to spend: $50, $75, $100, or $150

  • In the notes section at the check out submission page: Tell us the age range of the child(ren) who are receiving the box

  • Tell us what they like to read: themes, specific titles they’ve enjoyed, genres, etc.

  • We will pull and send titles similar to those you’ve listed that we are sure the recipients will love

A Surprise Box of Books is:

  • a one time purchase (though you can certainly set up a subscription if you would like)

  • an easy gift, we do most of the work!

  • a great surprise which equals tons of fun

Below are examples of a surprise box of books based around the theme of adventure! These examples are separated by age range: picture book, middle grade, and young adult. But you may mix and match if you want to send one box to friends, siblings, or cousins who are different ages!
