Worldwide and bulk orders

Children’s, middle-grade & YA books – ordering page for bulk orders, class sets, book clubs, overseas readers, schools, libraries, and parents

After many requests from schools, educators, teachers, administrators, principals, program coordinators, librarians, and parents, we’ve created a bulk order button feature that allows you to add all the books in a reading list into one shopping basket.

Clicking one of the buy buttons or links below will take you to a page where you can add all the books in that particular reading list into one shopping basket.
It will also let you know which books on the list are not available at the moment, or out of stock.
Once the books have been added to a basket, you can change the quantities, for example, if you need to order in bulk for a class set.
You can also remove any titles you don’t want or already own.
Once you have tailored your basket, there’s an order button if you want to proceed; or you can just leave the items in your basket for a later date.

How to order books for children in bulk

Clicking on a whole list link will create a Bookshop Org or Amazon storefront; or a pre-filled shopping cart on Amazon containing all the books on that list; depending on your location. Multiple links can be clicked if you want to add more than one list of books to your cart. Once on Bookshop Org or Amazon, you can choose which books you want, and change the quantities of each book if you want to order bulk copies.

What if I don’t want all the books on a list?

No problem! There is no obligation to buy all or any other books and you can also add and remove from the basket any titles you don’t want or already have.
Also, once the books have been added to a basket, you can change the quantities – for example, if you need to order in bulk for a class set.

What happens if items are not available?

We’ve coded our bulk order links so that it will tell you if items are not available – for example, if books are out of stock or temporarily out of print – and it won’t add these items to your basket. If you want to source second-hand items or alternative editions, this can be done manually to prevent orders from being delayed.

Can I order children’s books in bulk and pay by invoice?

Some schools prefer to order and pay via invoice. If you would like to do this, Amazon offers a business account that includes invoice orders suitable for schools – and many schools have told us that this facility works well for them. For more details, click the link below.
