Other kids bargains at the BP at the moment include box set of 10 Redwall books for £5 and boxed set of 10 Red Hot reads for £5 (collections of short stoies). Bit misleading in that it says things like 'Adventure stories by Clive King' (Stig if the Dump author) - it should say 'selected by', likewise Michael Morpurgo and Phillip Pullman etc. Many of the stories are extracts from authors like Conan Doyle and H G Wells, so really for older children, say 10 +.

Better yet, get them from your local library - it's FREE!!!!

I know that. But you can use it for your own needs.

Have ordered some of the young child sets before and they have been a good range of books. Bargain - especially if you use them as gifts at young kids birthday parties.

Delivery takes about a week or so and you get an email when the order is being dispatched.

Don't forget to order via www.quidco.com for an extra 5% cashback too. Free delivery code is HERE

MANY thanks for this.

My DD is getting married on sept 7th and I intend to do little 'goody' bags for the under 5's instead of a favour. I'm sure these will go down well with the parents as opposed to sweeties!

I've had a few of the lucky dips - in the latest catalogue it has pics of some of the and they are generally a decent selection. The lucky dip books are mostly ones from the 'kid's fiction collection' section. The only thing I'd say is that in each set of 10 there were probably 3 or so that were either poor or unsuitable for my kids (they now have a disclaimer saying that parental discretion may be required). Howevever, overall I was pretty pleased.

It was like Christmas the last time I ordered some of these. The kids loved it. And the value for money was tremendous. I've ordered some more. Thanks op.

Best wishes, Neil
