The Kids Book Company began in 2017 with a simple idea: personalised children’s books that teach as beautifully as they tell. Today we’re proudly run by Colin and Siobhain, a family-run business raising two small children of our own while building something we believe deeply matters. Colin brings over two decades of international business, publishing and education experience spanning 38 countries, with a long-standing fascination in how children’s minds grow. Siobhain brings her background in design, storytelling and education to every page we create. Together, we pour our hearts into every single book. From our family to yours.

Easier than finding the teddy on page seven (and yes, there’s always a teddy). Pick your story, pop in the child’s name and a few magical details, and we’ll conjure up a preview in seconds. Love what you see? Place your order and we’ll print it, bind it, and send it galloping off to the doorstep of your choice.

Every story we make is layered with quiet little lessons. Colours, counting, kindness, confidence, curiosity. We call it “educating on the sly” because the best learning happens when a child thinks they’re just having fun. No lectures. No homework. Just brilliant stories that happen to make little minds bloom.

Because we believe every child deserves to see themselves in a story. A personalised, educationally layered book shouldn’t be out of reach for any family, which is why all four of our titles come with a free digital version. Fully personalised, ready to read on any device, and yours to keep forever. No catch. No credit card. No small print. Just a little bit of magic on the house.

Because they turn the child into the hero of their very own story. They arrive wrapped in up-cyclable packaging, printed with vegetable inks (kind to little hands and the planet), and crafted for one child and one child only. Grandparents especially adore them. They beat a pair of socks every single time.

Our head office is nestled in the Shropshire countryside in the UK, but we’re a small family team spread across the UK, Australia and New Zealand. Which means somewhere in the world, someone is always awake and working on making a little one’s book just right.

Lots of ways, and we genuinely love hearing from you. The quickest route is our live chat at the bottom of the page or a quick email to support@thekidsbookcompany.com. Both are monitored throughout the day by our team of customer service wizards (honestly, helping you is their favourite thing). You can also find us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok and YouTube if you’d rather drop us a comment or a DM, though those tend to be checked a little less often. We’ll usually reply within a few hours during UK office hours, and by the next morning if you catch us while we’re sleeping.
