Looking at the website and confused as to the size of many kids books ie The Little Penguin is stated as being 16x219 mm but that would mean it's just 1.6cm wide. IS that a misprint as alot of the books seem to be less that 2cm (20mm) wide?!
Or am I just being thick?
Any one purchased books here to find they are strangely small?

Must be a misprint surely?

I haven't bought online from them but have bought via work and the books are all normal sizes.

All the books in their paper catalogue are over 250mm so I'm guessing it's a typo.

EG Humphrey's Jigsaw Puzzle Book is in the paper catalogue as 228 x 230mm and online as 19 x 235mm.

Thanks guys! I thought they must be typos but wanted to check in case I received a parcel of very tiny books!
