We are an Australian online children's book store specialising in unique book gifts sourced from around the world. You won't find our books everywhere else. We also offer a kids book subscription club. You can join one of our subscription clubs for kids aged between 3 and 12 years old. Giving the joy of reading month after month

All of our books are gift wrapped before being sent to you. You can read more about this here.

If you would like us to not wrap your order, then please email us at info@becuriousbooks.com.au as soon as your order is placed or leave us a message in the 'gift message' box so we can accommodate your wishes.

We pride ourselves on showcasing books published from all over the world. This includes Australian authors and publishers. We will often look at authors who have self-published or smaller publishing companies.

We are an online children's book store. Subscriptions are one of the products that we offer. We select beautiful books from around the world to showcase some of the other books available that are not easily found in the Australian market. Our main aim is to instil a love of reading in our children. It is all for a love of books.

Each month we will select two books for each club. You can choose if you would like to receive 1 or 2 books each month. At least one of the books will be a newly released publication (released in the last 60 days). If you select to receive just one book you will be sent the new release title. The remaining title will be a book that may not be available everywhere. You may not know what title we are sending you before you receive it.

Our aim is to provide kids the opportunity to access books and stories they may not know about. You can change your subscription anytime by logging into the customer portal.

We have three subscription clubs that cater to different age groups and reading levels. Explorers Club (3 to 6 years), Intrigue Club (6 to 8 years), and Curiosity Club (9- 12 years). In Explorers Club, you will find picture books with great storylines, illustrations, and characters. Intrigue club is an introduction to chapter books. These books will have fewer pictures and be longer. Please note these are not like school readers they are books for entertainment that are in a more digestible format for newly independent readers. Curiosity Club books are what is often termed "middle-grade fiction". The themes in these books are still age-appropriate for pre-teens before they launch into the world of "Young Adult" books. Characters and storylines are much more detailed and complex. These books are for strong readers. Each age range is a guide only as all kids will read at a different level. The Explorers club books will still be suitable for 7-year-old children who prefer the picture book format and books in the Intrigue club are great for younger kids if the books are read aloud to them at bedtime. If you need help trying decide on the best club for your child please email us info@becuriousbooks.com.au

Subscription Returns
For subscriptions we are unable to accept returns or provide a refund if you already have the book or you change your mind. We try to ensure that our book subscription contains a mix of new release titles and titles that you may not have come across through the normal channels to limit this from happening. We hope you can pass the extra book onto someone else for them to enjoy.

If a book is damaged or faulty, as per Australian Law, we will replace it for you or provide you with a refund. Please contact as soon as you receive your order (within 7 days). Please send an image of the damaged book to info@becuriousbooks.com.au and we will process your order.

If you change your mind on a book you can exchange it within 14 days. The book must be in pristine and saleable condition. It cannot be ‘read’. The cost of returning the book is at the expense of the buyer/purchaser. Be Curious Books will not pay for postage. The initial postage charge ($7.95 Australia wide) is also non refundable. We will offer an exchange only for change of mind returns. Please contact info@becuriousbooks.com.au to discuss the return.
