Which are the best children's bookstores in Singapore?

24 Sep, 2013

From Geronimo Stilton to classic Enid Blyton, we've found 6 of the best stores and sites to get children's books. Whether you like browsing physical or virtual books, you're bound to find some wonderful books here to fuel your little bookworm's love for reading.

Kinokuniya

Kinokuniya

Kinokuniya is the largest Bookstore in Singapore. It's store in Ngee Ann City is massive and maze-like, offering books for every age and every need. From books to magazines, DVDs, mangas, stationery and much more, you will be spoilt for choice! Their friendly staff will also help you search for a book title in their database and order it for you if it is not available in-store.
Bookaburra

Bookaburra

Known as the Children's Book Specialist, Bookaburra offers contemporary children's literature and award-winning books. They also stock books with CDs which is a particular favorite with parents of younger children. They have two branches, Forum the Shopping Mall and United Square.
Woods in the Books

Woods in the Books

Woods in the Books is an independent bookstore which specializes in picture books for all ages. It features a range of classic and contemporary picture books, comics, and graphic novels. At Tiong Bahru and Millenia Walk, it is a lovely place to check out childrens books. The layout of the stores is a visual treat. We like buying gifts from this store as it often stocks hardcover and board book options that you don't find in other stores. The staff are also excellent at suggesting age and interest appropriate books.
Junior Page

Junior Page

A cosy shop located at Alexandra Retail Centre, Junior Page features a wide range of children's books from adventure to educational, fiction to reference. It also provides free delivery for purchases above $15 for those who do not wish to make the trip to their store.
Amazon

Amazon

Amazon needs little introduction. It is the world's largest online site and started as a bookstore which has now branched into DVDs, CDs, other electronic and consumer products. It has billions of titles available - you'll definitely find the title you want for your child! Recently they announced free shipping from the US store to Singapore for purchases over US$125. Not all items qualify, you'll have to make sure the item is sold by Amazon directly and eligible for Global Saver shipping. Prices are considerable lower but it can take some effort to adjust your shopping basket to ensure that you qualify for free shipping.
Book Depository

Book Depository

Book Depository is a UK-based online bookstore that has millions of books and e-books. The benefits of shopping with them are low prices and free shipping worldwide. You can easily browse children's books as they are sorted into categories, editor's picks and age groups. There is no minimum purchase but do allow a few weeks to receive your books.
