  • My parcel arrived this morning (not as big as you'd think!) I was surprised by how fast they came. I only ordered monday night and they arrived Wednesday morning.
    My 5 year old went into school today for Roald Dahl day as farmer Boggis from fantastic mr fox and the playground was full of weird and wonderful characters including two teachers dressed as umpa lumpas:rotfl:
    I have now got 65 points towards free books so I guess I'll have to go back in a bit and earn some more. It's books all round for Christmas!
  • Well I found out why mine hasn't arrived. Apparently it was delivered on 11/9 by business express. We have had so much trouble with them in the past that I usually don't order anything if they are going to be the courier.
    Somebody else in my road is enjoying some free books and cd's!

  • Thinking about getting these but my sis said she has had two versions of Matilda on tape, one was good, one was not. She said the good version was read by British actors who really got into the parts. Would someone who has bought the set let me know who the actors are that tell the stories?

    Many thanks

    I have used book people for almost 10 years. Orders always delivered within 7 days. So if your parcel was shipped on Saturday, 5 working days would make it to be delivered Friday at the earliest:confused:

    Standard delivery UK Mainland* 5-7 working days
