Hi,
Wondering if anyone has come across these books ? I picked one up in a charity shop for my 11 month old DD and she adores it and keeps her quite for ages! With a flight and long train journey to prepare for I thought 'ohh I wonder if there are any more similar' So Googled the publishers site - NPP Books.
Found a whole series of them in a gift box - perfect I thought - only to discover that you can't buy direct from their site so I popped into local Waterstones to see if they could order - they searched - nothing, most surprised shop assistant then also Googled to find someone stocking them - no where. Anyway, apologies I waffle but am baffled now..
So I email the publishers asking for Stockists. I get a reply requesting the reference number from the website (why as info support she couldn't get this herself I don't know) she then replied to say they have the set and I can send a cheque.. I replied stating I no longer had cheque book and couldn't I just order them 'on-line' she sent me 3 suppliers all of which didn't have them on websites (or when I enquired were likely to therefore have them in their shops) so I responded again saying this and is there any way I can actually buy them ??! so her next suggestion was I bring cash to their office - they are in Bath and I'm in London, not a realistic option.
Anyway, yes apologies for my near rant on this subject but just wondered if anyone had any suggestions about how I can actually just get these blinking books !
Thanks, a very frustrated HappyJoyful!

Hi
I work for this publisher. I'm sorry you've had trouble locating our books if you would like to email me your address I will send out a set for you FOC with our compliments.

As the titles are fairly new to market I think this will explain why you have had trouble locating them on the High Street, however I will find a stockist near you and get them to take our products in for future purchases.

I hope this helps

Speak soon
Best Wishes
