Bookroo: A curated book subscription service for children

Bookroo is a monthly subscription for kids ages 0-10 that helps them fall {even more} in love with reading by combining the excitement of opening a gift with the discovery of a new, wrapped, treasured book! The mission is to enable and empower parents to build their children’s book collections in an affordable and exciting way through curated monthly book deliveries. Bookroo believes in the power and impact of the written word in the life of a child and believe it’s never too early to start reading to children. Use this link to get 15% off your first order.

  • Bookroo‘s books are reviewed by a panel of families attending Stanford University.
  • The company is women founded and run, by three sisters-in-law.
  • They offer board, picture, and chapter books.
  • Boxes with picture books come with 2 hardcover books. Boxes with board books come with 3 books. Boxes with chapter books come with 2 chapter books.
  • If you are sent a book you already have, Bookroo allows you to send them a picture of you giving the book to someone else and they’ll give you $5 off your next subscription.
  • Order month-to-month, 3 month, 6 month or 12 month. Cancel at ANY time!

Wondering how they choose the books? For the board and picture book boxes, the goal is to send hidden gems rather than classics. For the chapter book box, they send one hidden gem and one admired favorite per box. The books are chosen by in-house reading experts in consultation with librarians, parents and kids alike to help your child build their library, discover new books, and fall in love with reading. They’re focused on books with high quality illustrations, stories, messages and re-readability! The flyers in each box will tell you a little about why they loved each particular book. Because they know it’s important for parents to be aware and engaged, each chapter book box flyer contains information and talking points to help you know what your child will be reading, so you can relax, knowing they’ve carefully selected kid-friendly books. To see past boxes visit What’s in a Box page.
