Bubblegum Big Book House – Mobile Big Book Storage and Display

Give oversized storybooks a dedicated home with the Bubblegum Big Book House, a mobile storage and display unit designed for schools, pre-schools and nurseries. Its seven upright book slots help organise a collection, while the pitched roof provides a place to display the book being shared. This combination keeps book storage close to story time, making it easier for adults to prepare a session and return resources afterwards.

The house-shaped design creates a recognisable focal point in a reading corner. Instead of keeping large books in a pile, staff can organise them vertically and separate them by topic, author or reading activity. The seven slots are storage compartments, rather than a stated capacity of seven books: the number that fits depends on the size and thickness of your collection. This makes the unit useful for settings with a changing selection of large-format picture books.

Castor wheels allow adults to move the Bubblegum Big Book House when rearranging a classroom or preparing group reading. The roof display can hold the chosen story where it can be seen, while the remaining books stay organised underneath. A Japanese Ash finish gives the main unit a wood-effect appearance, complemented by a choice of cyan, tangerine, lime or white roof trim. Select the available colour option that suits your reading area.

Made from 18mm melamine-faced chipboard and supplied assembled, this big book storage unit offers a practical furniture solution for busy learning spaces. Its overall measurements are 910mm wide, 568mm deep and 1011mm high, so you can plan its position before ordering. Consider both the footprint and the space needed for adults and children to move around the reading area. One book house is supplied in the selected trim colour; books shown in photographs are not included. With storage and presentation brought together, the Bubblegum Big Book House helps staff keep a shared collection organised and ready for the next story.

Seven Slots for Big Book Organisation

The tall, narrow compartments hold books upright so covers and page edges are less likely to become buried beneath a heavy pile. Because there are exactly seven slots, staff can create a repeatable system for different themes, teaching groups or days of the week. Children can compare the visible books, choose a title and return it with adult guidance, providing a genuine opportunity to practise controlled reaching, grasping and careful handling.

Use the upright compartments to group books by theme or teaching sequence. Keep frequently used titles accessible and avoid overfilling slots, so covers and pages can be removed without catching. The open arrangement lets staff see where resources belong during preparation and tidying.

A Roof Display for Story Time

The two orange sloping roof panels create an eye-catching face-forward presentation area. The retaining rails support a book against the slope so its cover can introduce the next story or an open page can become the shared visual focus. This allows an adult to point out characters, new vocabulary, numbers or illustration details while several children look at the same resource.

Place the selected book on the roof display to introduce its cover, title and illustrations. Adults can invite children to predict the story or recall a previous reading. The display provides a practical focal point; the stories and conversations create the language-learning opportunities.

Mobile Classroom Furniture for Flexible Spaces

Four castors allow an adult to reposition the unit when a classroom layout changes. Move it beside a carpet for group reading, nearer a literacy area for independent choice, or into a library zone for a themed display. Its 910mm width, 568mm depth and 1011mm height should be checked against doors, routes and the intended floor space before ordering.

Ideas for Your Reading Area

Prepare a weekly selection around a familiar topic, keeping related books together. After shared reading, invite children to help identify the correct return slot with adult guidance. Rotate the displayed title to introduce a new author, rhyme or seasonal story.

Why Choose Bubblegum Big Book House?

The unit combines vertical book organisation with a visible display surface and adult-controlled mobility. Its house shape suits early years reading corners, and the choice of roof trim helps coordinate it with existing furniture. Supplied assembly saves classroom setup time.
