Plan Your Visit

Gift & Book Shop

Step off the street and into our most unusual gift and book shop.

Our independent book shop is well-stocked with classic stories as well as all the latest exciting releases from your favourite authors, including graphic novels, picture books, poetry, myths and legends. We also have a dyslexia friendly section and an array of board books. Continue the story at home with books featured in the Museum or discover something new.

Our shop is open alongside the Museum Galleries and café.

Bookshelves in our shop

If you’re looking for a present for that special someone, be sure to check out our range of book-related gifts including stationery, socks, prints, homeware and soft toys. Meanwhile, younger visitors looking for a memento of their visit won’t be disappointed with our exciting array of pocket money items including bookmarks, wooden toys, pencils, rubbers and badges.

Don’t forget, many of the stories featured in our exhibitions are available in our shop, which means that the story can continue even after you’ve bid The Story Museum farewell!

For information about buying an annual Story Pass or a Story Museum gift voucher that can be redeemed against Museum visits and event tickets, visit our Museum Prices page.

As a registered charity, all proceeds from our box office, shop and café go towards supporting our work to enrich lives through stories.
