Books Make Perfect Presents

Books Make Perfect Presents

Do you find yourself scratching your head at Christmas wondering what gift to buy for your Gran who will predictably give you yet another jumper which is 2 sizes too big. Or are you stressing about what to buy the person you are seeing but not seeing seeing? Is it acceptable to give your Mum slippers for the 5th year in a row? The solution to your gift-giving woes is quite simple, books. A book is just the very best present as you are giving the recipient the gift of reading, a chance to escape from reality and immerse themselves in the story inside.

There are many reasons to give the gift of a book:

There is a book out there for everyone

If someone says they don’t like books, they are lying! They just haven’t found the right book yet. From the Fortnum and Mason Cookbook for the foodie in your life to The Official Tour de France Bike Maintenance Book, perfect for any avid cyclist, you can find a fitting book to give. Nature buffs and lovers of the great outdoors can enjoy the Short Walks in Beautiful Places Book whilst planning their next adventure. There really is something for everyone.

Books last forever

Ok so maybe books don’t quite last forever but giving a book really is giving the gift of a story which does last forever. Stories worm their way into your brain and stick.

You’re giving someone a whole world

Just think of all the new worlds which are just waiting to be explored, bound and housed in a beautiful hardback book. You can quite literally explore the world without leaving the comfort of your sofa with Around the World in 80 Novels which covers every corner of the globe from the most visited cities of Europe to the rural outposts of Australia.

It never goes out of fashion

Books don’t come and go with the latest fashion craze. You don’t need to be of a specific era to enjoy a classic. However, if fashion is your bag, try the Chanel Catwalk Book!

Books can be personalised

From a thoughtful note scribbled on the front page to embossed covers, a personalised book shows you care and that you’ve put thought into your gift. Our Personalised Six Nations Rugby History Book will hit the spot with any avid rugby fans out there.

Easy to wrap!

Ok so maybe this is a little lazy but a book is just the BEST gift to wrap! It’s hard to go wrong when dressing a book to give. Just add a ribbon if there is no time to bother with wrapping paper – easy!

Christmas is the perfect time to snuggle up and escape into a good book. Quality family time can often be spent with heads buried deep in a good story. So go on, choose a book and get lost in a whole new world.
