Our dedicated children’s department Little Owl’s is packed with books toys, games and other goodies – there’s something for every pocket.

There are books for all ages, from new babies to young adult and we’re pretty good at finding the right book for you. If we don’t have what you’re looking for in stock, we offer a free ordering service, usually with next day delivery in-store, so please just ask and we can help.

We hold regular story-telling sessions on Saturday mornings in our special Bookshop Bothy, where we are helped out by our resident Bookshop Bunny, BB, and his sidekicks the Ink Blots -  two very cute guinea pigs. These interactive sessions are more frequent during the school holidays.

We also run an organised programme of events throughout the year from author visits in the shop and at external venues to our incredibly popular Bookshop Parties, which usually lead to a lot of crumbs and glitter on the carpet!

In addition, we are happy to coordinate book weeks for schools and one-off author visits. In 2016, we ran the first ever schools festival for Linlithgow and the surrounding area. A Wee Bit Further From was a great success and will now be an annual event. It is open to every local school in the area.
