Seven Stories - National Centre for Children's Books

Seven Stories is the National centre for children's books. We select original artwork and manuscripts - from first scribbles to finished work - to make our exhibitions, events and learning programmes. You are invited to lose yourself with a good book in our well-stocked bookshop or pop down to enjoy a hot drink and delicious meal in our café whilst enjoying the picturesque view of the Ouseburn River. Seven Stories Independent bookshop is home to thousands of the very best in children’s literature from picturebooks, classics and poetry to unique gifts, exclusive prints and Young Adult fiction. Our expert staff are also on hand to pick out the perfect book. Curl up with your new book in our brand new, magical Storytelling corner or enjoy an interactive storytime at specific times throughout the day.
