Such a pleasure for my son and a help to us to have a bookcase he can just choose things from independently whenever the mood takes him. A lovely display instead of crammed-together spines makes all the difference.

Our Story

I’m Géraldine, I’m a mum and I started Tidy Books when I created the first Tidy Books children's bookcase for my daughter in 2004.  It’s become a design classic and it’s changed how we present books to kids at home.  Ever since, I’ve been designing book shelves, wooden wall bookcases and storage boxes for kids which foster their sense of independence, because... Kids Know Best!

The first children's bookcase I ever made had the alphabet on the panels, and you can choose from the classic Tidy Books alphabet bookcase, as well as our plain bookcase.   We make Tidy Books children’s book storage in a range of neutral, stylish colours so that they’ll fit beautifully with  your decor and be a lasting addition to your home.

When you choose Tidy Books, you’re guaranteed an original design.  My designs are simple, classic and built to last. Buy Tidy Books and you’ll have an iconic piece of kid’s furniture to pass on through the family.  Every product is finished by hand, making each one unique. My original, handmade designs are very different from what you’d find at the larger stores. 

All Tidy Books designs are made in sustainable wood and finished in eco-friendly water lacquer.  

Parents tell us how much their children enjoy using their Tidy Books independently, whether it’s to explore books,  organise small toys or keep books next to them in the top bunk bed. I’m proud that my designs have helped kids discover the world for themselves. Because KIDS KNOW BEST! 

I believe designs for kids should make sense to kids. Everything I make is designed to be fun for children, to draw them in and foster their sense of independence.
