18.01.2022 These two lads (commonly known in our store as ‘Margot’s brothers’) spotted Andy Lee’s latest book Do Not Open This Book Ever and quickly grabbed it off the shelf and started reading and chuckling. Such a joy to see! ... #ballarat #books #theballaratlife #visitballarat #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #booklovers #goodbook #bookclub #bookaholic #shoplocal #bookrecommendation #3350 #loveballarat #buylocalballarat #donotopenthisbook
17.01.2022 A book called ‘The Grandest Bookshop in the World’ deserves the grandest display! How gorgeous does this book look? After being inspired by the story of E W Cole and his amazing Melbourne bookstore which he opened in Melbourne in the late 1800’s, author Amelia Mellor’s debut fiction novel is set in the fantastical Coles Book Arcade. The story revolves around Pearl and Vally Cole who live in the book arcade with their eccentric father. Each day brings fresh delights for th...e siblings: voice-changing sweets, talking parrots, a new story written just for them. When Pearl and Vally learn that Pa has risked the Arcade and himself in a shocking deal with the mysterious Obscurosmith, the siblings hatch a plan. Soon they are swept into a dangerous game with impossibly high stakes: defeat seven challenges by the stroke of midnight and both the Arcade and their father will be restored. Available in store or online now. https://collinsbooksballaratonlydiard.com.au/p/teenage-the- #ballarat #books #theballaratlife #visitballarat #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #booklovers #goodbook #bookclub #bookaholic #shoplocal #bookrecommendation #3350 #loveballarat #buylocalballarat #AmeliaMellor #thegrandestbookshopintheworld

13.01.2022 Thanks to everyone for having fun with our Charlie and the Chocolate Factory treasure hunt during the school holidays. And congratulations to this Charlie for winning the $50 bookstore voucher. What are the chances that we would randomly choose a ‘Charlie’ as a winner! (Probably slightly higher then randomly choosing a Willy Wonka ).

05.01.2022 Honest, insightful, funny - a brilliant memoir about writing and teaching and life from one of Australia's most loved children's authors. Sometimes, rather than making you laugh or cry out in surprise, a story will instead leave you wondering about human fragility. In the telling of his own tale, children's author and screenwriter Paul Jennings demonstrates how seemingly small events can combine into a compelling drama. As if assembling the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, he puts together fragments, memories and anecdotes to reveal the portrait of a complex and weathered soul. Untwisted is revealing, moving and very funny. Available in store or online. https://collinsbooksballaratonlydiard.com.au/p/biography-un

03.01.2022 This beautiful book is a photographic journey through the small communities of the Mallee and the people who call them home. The book, beautifully designed by Phil Campbell and written by Adam McNicol captures life in the small towns of the Mallee and on the farms that surround them. One particular focus is the growing interest of tourists in the area, focusing on the silo trail and the growing popularity of Lake Tyrrell near Sea Lake. Images have been taken by five of Austra...lia’s best rural documentary photographers Andrew Chapman, Jaime Murcia, Noel Butcher, Melanie Faith Dove and Erin Jonasson and is a wonderful reflection of this special part of Victoria. #ballarat #books #theballaratlife #visitballarat #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #booklovers #goodbook #bookclub #bookaholic #shoplocal #bookrecommendation #3350 #loveballarat #buylocalballarat #themallee See more
