After a couple of years only as an online bookstore, and a pop-up bookshop for World Book Day 2025, Quokka Bookstore has finally the chance to open the physical bookshop. The location will be in the beautiful Perth, Scotland.
The bookshop will be a cosy and welcoming place to visit, in the heart of Perth, in one of the areas with many independent businesses. Many exciting ideas will only wait the possibility to become reality, something that an online bookstore can’t allow you.
The bookshop will stock books for every age and genre, but it will primarily focus on promoting reading and create events for children and teenagers. Teenagers, in particular, are often left behind comparing to the enormous number of books published every year in the UK for other age groups.
Let’s not forget fantasy, romance, crime, historical fiction novels and books dedicated to nature.
The crowdfunding is set up to cover the deposit and furniture costs necessary to start this new adventure.
If you aren’t able to pledge, you can still help by sharing this campaign as much as you can via any form of social media, word-of-mouth – anything; I’ll be always grateful for it!
I am looking forward to welcoming you and opening the doors to your next book-adventure!
