To address the questions we get asked most, here are some answers about how our book subscriptions work.
We send a quarterly newsletter + sporadic news on books, tips & special offers. Sign up for news!
Our books will inspire your children to build a more humane world. We cover a diverse range of themes including: Health & Well-being, Environmental Care, Peace & Gratitude, Animal Welfare, Human Rights & Equality, Cultural Diversity, Activism, and Humane Living. Learn more about our books!
Every month Little Humane Books sends you up to 2 high-quality children's books + tip sheets to discuss their humane themes and how they teach compassion. Plus, you receive engaging conversation cards that inspire more ideas to create kindness (watch a demo here).
To welcome you to our community, your first children's book package includes a fun "do not disturb" door hanger that lets kids say when they're busy reading! You'll also receive your Reading Points card that shows how you earn Points for Rewards (details below!) Plus, every book comes with an eco-friendly bookmark. And there are some bonuses!
*A school is able to benefit from receiving free books through their students' subscriptions once they also have an active subscription.

Each subscription plan automatically renews and re-bills every 3, 6 or 12 months respectively, specifically on the 11th day of the final month. Your credit/debit card will automatically be charged the subscription fee unless you skip a renewal period or cancel your subscription. You may login to your account to manage these settings anytime or email us for help. Have an Account? Login!
Our School Subscriptions operate during the school year (September-June). During the summer break (July and August), we can pause these deliveries and once school re-starts we then continue delivering these book packages there. Or, if you prefer, we can deliver these book packages over the summer holidays to a nearby collection point.
We are also mindful of covid-19 regulations but should you have any questions feel free to email us.
Please note: When you choose a School Subscription please specify the teacher's name and class that we should direct your children's books to. You will also see a list of schools/centers that we already deliver to, but if you don't see the one you wish to use, you can provide its name and address in your order. Interested? Get started!
