Welcome to the children books section of BooksFactory, our biggest shelf of books for kids. Here you will find thousands of children's books for every stage of growing up: board books for babies, picture books for toddlers, story books for kids who are learning to read, and encyclopedias for curious school children. If you want to buy children books online for your own child, for a classroom or as a birthday gift, the sections below will take you straight to the right kind of book.
A good story is the fastest way to make a child fall in love with reading. Short moral stories for kids teach honesty, kindness and courage without a lecture. Fairy tales such as Cinderella, Pinocchio and The Ugly Duckling feed the imagination, and five minute bedtime stories turn the end of the day into the best part of it. Many of our kids story books are available in both English and Hindi. For ready ideas, read our guides to moral stories for kids, Akbar Birbal stories and Panchatantra stories for kids.
For the youngest readers, choose board books with thick pages, rounded corners and one bright picture on each page. First words, animals, fruits, vehicles and touch and feel books are the most popular baby books. Books for toddlers should be short enough to finish in one sitting and sturdy enough to survive being chewed, dropped and read fifty times.
The Shop by Age page sorts books by age group, and our guide to the best books for kids by age explains what to look for at each stage.
Books are among the most useful birthday and return gifts. Box sets of story books, a big illustrated encyclopedia or a set of activity books suit most children, and they last far longer than a toy. Check the age group on the book page before you order, and pick a boxed set when you want the gift to feel special.
Choose a book for the age and interest of your child, add it to your cart, and buy books for kids online with confidence. More ideas for parents are on our blog.
