A book is the cheapest gift with the longest shelf life. Toy Fort's kids books range spans story books, colouring books, activity books, sticker books, musical & sound books, encyclopedias and novels and chapter books — from publishers including Scholastic, DK, Bloomsbury, Macmillan, Harper, Miles Kelly, Parragon, Dreamland and Om Kidz.
Whether you're buying a cloth book for a six-month-old or a Rick Riordan series for a ten-year-old, there's a book here for every reading stage. Shop with Cash on Delivery across India as well as worldwide delivery — or visit E-99, Kamla Nagar Market, Delhi.
Babies read with their hands and mouths before their eyes. Our HKU cloth book range — rhymes, animals, numbers, transport, and Hindi varnmala and baalgeet — is soft, washable and crinkly, and safe to chew. Reading aloud from birth is one of the most evidence-backed things a parent can do for language development.
Our colouring books, activity books and sticker books build pencil grip, focus and patience — and buy you a quiet hour. Look for Chalk & Chuckles felt sticker books, Dreamtivity and Hinkler activity titles. These travel brilliantly: a sticker book is the best thing you can put in a bag before a long journey.
Our story books include Disney treasuries, Miles Kelly classic story collections and bedtime anthologies — the kind of book you read a hundred times and can eventually recite. Bedtime reading is a routine as much as a story; the repetition is the point.
For the child who asks why about everything, our encyclopedias include DK and North Parade lift-the-flap atlases, pop-up encyclopedias and Questions & Answers titles on dinosaurs, the human body and history. When they're ready to read alone, our novels and chapter books carry Harry Potter, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Rick Riordan and Scholastic Graphix.

FAQs
Q: What books should I buy for a 1-year-old?
A: For babies under two, choose cloth books and board books — they're washable, chewable and durable. Look for high-contrast pictures, simple rhymes and single words per page. Toy Fort's HKU cloth book range covers rhymes, animals, numbers and Hindi varnmala from ₹360.
Q: What is the best age to start reading to a child?
A: From birth. Babies benefit from hearing language long before they can understand it, and reading aloud from infancy is strongly associated with later vocabulary and literacy.

A: Toy Fort stocks 52 publishers including Scholastic, DK (Dorling Kindersley), Bloomsbury, Macmillan, Harper, Miles Kelly, Parragon, Hinkler, Igloo, Dreamland, Om Kidz and North Parade.
Q: What are good books for an 8-year-old who is starting to read alone?
