We stock books we are passionate about and are proud to work with local publishers and have a wide range of independently published titles. Our books can be ordered through our website, our shop was in Hackney, London but has now closed as we’ve moved aboard a boat.
Telling Tales was founded and is independently run by Daisy, it is also part of LINE, a digital studio who have been working with authors and publishers since 2002.
A Hackney based children's book shop has swapped bricks and mortar...for water. Telling Tales book boat now roams through London's canals on a purpose-built boat. @RachaelBrwn has more. ⛴️📙 #canal #london #boat pic.twitter.com/LKXfCqHXjO
