About Tidy Books

I’m Géraldine, I’m a mum and I started Tidy Books with the first Tidy Books children's bookcase for my daughter in 2004. It’s become a design classic and has changed how we present books to kids at home. Ever since, I’ve been designing book shelves, wooden wall bookcases and storage boxes for kids which foster their sense of independence, because... Kids Know Best! My award winning bookcases have been featured on TV, including Homeland and Cbeebies. Parents and Montessori educators from around the world have chosen Tidy Books to create a space that allows kids to see and pick out books independently, instilling a love of reading from an early age! When choosing Tidy Books, you’re guaranteed an original design. My designs are simple, classic and built to last. Buy Tidy Books and you’ll have an iconic piece of kid’s furniture to pass on through the family. Every product is finished by hand, making each one unique. My original, handmade designs are different from what you’d find at the larger stores. Tidy Books designs are made in sustainable wood and finished in eco-friendly water lacquer. Parents tell us how much their children enjoy using their Tidy Books independently, whether it’s to explore books, organise small toys or keep books next to them in the top bunk bed. I believe designs for kids should make sense to kids. Everything I make is designed to be fun for children, to draw them in and foster their sense of independence. Because KIDS KNOW BEST!
