Introducing .. Happy Readers !
Since we opened in 2021 we have been looking for a way to reward our younger readers. There are so many wonderful, bright eyed kids in the area who love devouring books as much as we do.
That’s why we are so excited to launch our ‘Happy Readers’ loyalty program. Think of it as a coffee loyalty card… but for kid's books.
Kids as young as 6 (max 18 years old) can pick up a card in store - they will look something like this:
Each time they come in to buy a children's book from us one of our friendly Open Books will stamp the card. At the end of ‘Barry the Book Worm’ each Happy Reader will be rewarded with a free children's book of their choice (* must be RRP: $22.99 or under).
We know that some kids are already natural readers, some love to finish a book or TWO in a weekend, making buying a 12 part series pretty pricey for parents. Hopefully this program can ease the financial burden of birthing a bookworm.
We also know that some kids are reluctant readers and perhaps our Happy Reader loyalty card might gameify the experience of reading for them, and get their eyes away from screens.
Either way we are so excited to start this journey with you and our community of bookworms.
As always , thank you for your support and …..
Happy Reading !!!

FAQ
Is it per book or per purchase?
We will stamp the card per book (eg. if you purchase three children's books, your card will be stamped three times).
Will my card only be stamped if the kid is there?
No. As long as the parent has the Happy Readers card on them this is fine.
What if I forget my card?
We will initial your receipt for a future stamp. If you can show proof of purchase on return with the Happy Readers and the marked receipt then we can stamp the card at a later date.
Can a grandparent have a card?
Yes, a grandparent can have a card if they are purchasing books for their grandchild.
