Bookshop

One of the joys of our business is talking to our customers (mostly about books!) and sharing recommendations. Although we do offer a wide range of titles, there will always be those we have overlooked. However, any title you want can usually be here for you within 24 hours.

We also love a challenge, so if there is an old or out of print book that you would like to find, why not put us to the test? We have even been known to track down a book with little more information than the colour of the jacket and a vague idea of the content!

Our stock includes Fiction, Biographies, Classics, Poetry, Travel, History, Local Interest, Sport, Cookery, Gardening, Homes, Science, Nature, Health, Animals, Transport, Military, Art & Music, Hobbies, Religion and we have a large selection of children’s fiction and non fiction.

We also stock Classical Music and National Book Tokens, together with our own Caxton Books & Gallery Gift Tokens.

We offer the following services:

  • Gift wrapping
  • Pre-order new books
  • Gift vouchers
  • Home delivery (local area)
  • Book-related gifts
  • Classical CDs
  • Local guide books and history

wonderWONDER’ BY R J PALICIO

THIS BESTSELLER IS A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!

‘My name is August. I won’t describe what I look like. Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse.’  Auggie wants to be an ordinary ten-year-old. He does ordinary things – eating ice cream, playing on his Xbox. He feels ordinary – inside. But ordinary kids don’t make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. Ordinary kids aren’t stared at wherever they go.  Born with a terrible facial abnormality, Auggie has been home-schooled by his parents his whole life. Now, for the first time, he’s being sent to a real school – and he’s dreading it. All he wants is to be accepted – but can he convince his new classmates that he’s just like them, underneath it all?

WONDER is a funny, frank, astonishingly moving debut to read in one sitting, pass on to others, and remember long after the final page.   

I LOVED this book and thoroughly recommend it to young people and adults alike. (Sally)
