We love kids’ books and literature here at beijingkids, but sourcing quality English books in Beijing is hard. Of course several bookstores have a section with English children’s books, but they are usually very expensive. We have looked and asked around to source decent priced books that will boggle your kids mind.

Teachers House

Teachers House aims to support teachers and parents. I have ordered books from here and they always deliver. If you have a specific need, or book you are looking for, they are happy to help and see what they have in stock. I needed a book for my daughter about hitting, and Teacher’s House found me a suitable book in a few minutes explaining my toddler not to hit her friends. Contact on WeChat: teachershousehelper

Diana

Diana stocks many kids’ books, and she has good deals on sets and sticker books. She shares what she has in stock on her WeChat Moments. I have ordered from her many times and have always been happy with the service and delivery speed. Usborne sticker books were my daughter’s favorites. WeChat: dianayi2009

Metro Store

In a quite unexpected corner of this mall is a little toy store with a array of English books up for grabs. I have found super-cute Osborne books, and other book sets which will entertain your kid and your own inner child. Stop by the Metro to stock up on groceries, and then head for this cute little corner of childhood favorites. Find out more here.

Live to Read

I found this market stall at Farms to Neighbors and was surprised with the quantity and quality of these books: small books, big books, old classics and new favorites. Check with the market to see if she will be there, or find her on WeChat. The books are priced very reasonably and we found our new favorite Christmas book from her. Add on WeChat: dumulan001
