Mum of 3

As a black mum of 3 i have always been looking to update my daughters book collection to show them more about their history and books that depict them more! In this world they dont see themselves alot this has been an amazing way to do just that! My children love the books and the activity pages and look forward to the next delivery everytime! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this happen for our young kings and queens!

Amazing!

Such an amazing small business with beautiful stories each month! My daughter loves receiving this package each month!

5 stars well earned!

This is my second month into my subscription and I am extremely impressed. The books we have receieved so far have been interesting and full of culture/diversity. Imagine Me stories are very efficient they send out books catering to your child's age group and as a bonus you will receive information packs and activities recognising black individuals around the world. Not only is it good for children to know about their heritage but I too learn something new each month. Thank you Imagine Me stories this is a subscription service we will continue supporting. We are eagerly awaiting our next book :)

Excellent book selection

Since having children, I've been making a conscious effort to buy books that shows representation so that they can feel seen. I didn't really know how to find these books until I came across Imagine Me Stories. The selection is great and can be narrowed down to categories and ages. I've got age appropriate books for my 6 year old and books with stunning visuals for my toddler. I can't recommend enough.

Amazing book subscription

I have now brought 3 subscriptions. One for my daughter who is 6 months and 2 for my friends children for their birthdays. They love the books and activities. I have a folder and I am keeping the activities for when my daughter is older. I also plan to use them in school as I am a teacher.
I will be doing another subscription for the next birthday.
