About LoveReading4Kids

Once Upon a Time, a team of avid bookworms set up a book recommendation site, to help people find their next favourite book. After that was a success they realised that all the children of the land were missing out, and decided to make them a website all their own. The website was filled with adventure and fun, but after a few years it started to slow. Now a new team have set out to rescue the sleepy little website and give it a new lease of life…

LoveReading4Kids was set up to be the best recommendation site for Children’s Books. Our passion for Children’s books ranges from toddlers to teens. Created in the same successful format of our first book recommendation website, LoveReading we offer a variety of FREE services for parents and anyone who is interested in buying the best books for boys and girls of all ages.

After changing ownership in 2017, the entire LoveReading brand has been given a fresh coat of paint. We’ve kept all of the unique features that are loved by our community as well as adding a more features for our users to enjoy. This includes our brand new KIDS’ ZONE, an area designed specifically for children, using the feedback of our current subscribers, with competitions, quizzes and additional book related content.
