Been looking for one of these!
Any idea where we might get some from for our large, urban primary school? Much needed to promote reading in a town with no book shop.

Just wondering if you move them inside out of school hours? Would love to do this but our grounds are easily accessible and subject to constant vandalism 😢

We have schools that move them inside at the end of the day for this very reason. They are very light and we don’t pack them with too many books- equally we put the books in plastic containers on a night of leaving over night so books don’t get moist. 👍

This would be nice to launch for the Summer term.

Love this idea. 💕📚 We could look into doing some fundraising to buy a couple of book swap sheds.
