"Your book coming through the post to my 7-year-old this month is like actual reading MAGIC!"
~Liz

Why this subscription for your 5 to 8-year-old?
Our Parakeet subscription will help you make the transition from picture books to chapter books when your child is ready to take this exciting step in their reading journey.
Subscribers eagerly await the arrival of each new box which is addressed to them personally – reinforcing the idea that reading is exciting and enjoyable rather than a chore.
The accompanying activity pack really adds to the fun but also help children connect more deeply with what they’ve read and how it relates to their own lives. It also enables the whole family to feel involved in the book club experience.

What's in each monthly box?


Subscribing for two siblings in the Parakeet reading group?
Select the ‘Two children’ option above and receive a sibling-sized pack each month. We will address every parcel to both siblings and they will receive two of everything except the book itself which can be shared. Read more in our FAQs.
For guidance this category is aimed at children aged 5 to 8.
