Hello author. We like you. For without you, we would have very little to sell.

HEY CHILDRENS AUTHORS...

We do this thing called Big Green Wednesday, where an author visits the bookshop on a Wednesday morning at 9.30am, and we invite a class from one of the local schools to come along and meet them. The shop is shut until 10.30, so the author has an hour to entertain the kids in any way they see fit!! The school will let the kids' parents know beforehand that they are meeting an author and that a book is available to buy, so hopefully the author makes a few sales out of it too.  It's brilliant fun and it can get the kids really excited about books and reading. We've had some great authors who've come along. What's more, it usually leads to schools requesting that the author come for a visit, which is a great opportunity to get a lot more coverage.

If you're a kids' author and you think this is something you'd be interested in doing, please get in touch (enquiries@biggreenbookshop.com).

HEY AUTHORS...

Would you like to do an event at our bookshop ?

  Since we opened in March 2008 we have done well over 300 author events, both in and out of the bookshop. We really enjoy doing them and we'd like to do more this year. If you have a book coming out which you think our customers would be interested in reading, please get in touch. We've done all sorts of events and we can accomodate anything up to 50 people in the bookshop.

We have bigger venues available too, where we can fit audiences of up to 400, so if you like the sound of the shop and think it's the kind of place you'd like to appear, we are a phonecall ( 020 8881 6767 ) or an email ( enquiries@biggreenbookshop.com ) away.
