With World Book Day to remind us it's hard to forget how important books are for our children's development. Here local mums recommend the best places to buy books locally
"I highly recommend Usborne books to all Local Mums. I have an almost three year old daughter and we have had so much pleasure in reading Usborne books together."

"I highly recommend Usborne books to all Local Mums. The quality of their books is amazing and my children love them. They have really instilled a love of books and reading in my son and my daughter with their wonderful choice of titles. They are really good value too."

Usborne
Usborne is a major, independent, award-winning UK publishing company and Children's Publisher of the Year 2012-2013. They publish almost every type of children's book for every age from baby to young adult.
Founded by Peter Usborne in 1973, Usborne pioneered a completely new generation of entertaining, colourful and friendly non-fiction books. Since its foundation, Usborne has been the publisher that children themselves love for its humorous, factual and fun books. Usborne is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year!
There is now an Usborne book for every age. They publish cot, cloth and bath books for babies and early years books to help children to develop essential pre-reading skills. Their Very First Reading series and the Usborne Reading Programme help children – and their parents – through the difficult stage when they are learning to read on their own.
Then, when they are able to read independently, children can choose to read an Usborne book on whatever interests them, from dinosaurs to submarines, fairy tales to world history, and for older readers, our growing list of titles for young adults.
World book day vouchers redeemable with Usborne.
Local Mum Vinia Burrowes is a new Usborne organiser. "I have two kids aged one and three who love books so I wanted to share my passion for books with others," explains Vinia. "Usborne is great for Local Mums because I can host parties at your home, offering the host free books which is currently 20% of your party sales value, but for a limited time only!"
Vinia is also available to come to children's centres, playgroups, schools and offices with a selection of books to browse and buy. "I can bring Usborne to almost anywhere!" says Vinia, "During the day, weekend or evening to suit."
Or why not become an Usborne organiser yourself and spread the book love while working hours to suit you and your family?
