We believe every child should have access to books whatever their background 📚

We recently gifted ~1800 books to the amazing Children’s Book Project, who will pass them on to children who need them the most. Our titles will be passed on to primary schools, food banks, women’s refuges, or children with a parent in prison.

We are so appreciative of charities like these and hope these books are enjoyed by those who received them.

In an exciting pre-holiday success, Little Brother Books ‘SHOOT’ Advent Calendars have sold out just weeks after hitting the market. Our calendars have been designed to offer fans a unique daily countdown to Christmas with exclusive football-themed surprises, quizzes and competitions.

We’re thrilled with the overwhelming response. To see these calendars go from idea to sell-out success so quickly has been fantastic, and it’s clear the love for football extends beyond the pitch.

With the SHOOT Advent Calendar now completely sold out, we are expecting good things from our 2025 SHOOT Annuals which are on our online store.

Don’t worry if you missed out this year, we will very soon be working on our calendars for 2025!

We have donated approximately 90 children’s 2024 Annuals to Exeter Foodbank.

These books will be added to the bookshelf in their foodbank room, where children can take one home to enjoy.

Being part of Exeter FoodBank’s mission to help our local community means the world to us. Every gesture counts, and we’re proud to stand behind this amazing cause.

We are very excited to share that SHOOT has had an exclusive interview with one of the most exciting players in the Premier League… Cole Palmer!

Our 2025 SHOOT Annual is available for 2025 now!

Little Brother Books features in the licensing press…

‘Brokered by London Entertainment Inc., in partnership with the UK’s number one publisher in children’s annuals, Little Brother Books, Rebekah and Jamie Vardy have embarked on their new venture with a series of storybooks aimed at children aged three and upwards.

The first release – Cedric The Little Sloth with a Big Dream – was unveiled at an exclusive event at The Dorchester Hotel, London on 8 March. It introduces the Be You Guardians, with each title having a different storyline and B.U.G support.

Cedric has a passion for football, bags of enthusiasm and dreams of joining his favourite football team, the Rainforest Rovers, but has had it engrained in him that sloths are too slow and too sleepy to be good footballers. The Be You Guardians step in to boost Cedric’s confidence and remind him that he can follow his dream and join the team.

Rebekah and Jamie wanted to develop stories based around a theme that they strongly believe in, and which will be reiterated in every title: inspiring children to be confident and happy, just by being themselves and never letting anyone tell you that you can’t achieve your dreams.’
