We are proud to be supporting the Orana Steiner School Parents and Friends (P&F) Association launch of The Orana Anthology of Creative Thought.
Canberra kids from years 2 to 12 took part - and now their works are published.
Join us on Saturday 2 July to celebrate and help launch their book!!
We are Canberra's newest, independent bookshop - selling a great range of new books across all genres.
We love kid's books and have a great selection of local, Australian and overseas books for kids of all ages.
We also supply new books to schools and child care centres.
You can also browse and buy online.
We love holding events for book lovers at the Book Cow or nearby.
Whether for kids, adults, fiction or non-fiction - if it is about a book we love to have a chat about it.

As Canberra's specialist children's bookshop, our aim is to find books that other shops or distributors overlook or cannot find.
We have a big focus on diverse children's literature, local authors and creators, non-fiction, environmental issues and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stories and authors.
We love to help local schools, preschools, child care centres and play groups find great books for kids to enjoy.
And need a locally based book fair? We can help with that!!
