#GiveTheGiftOf reading to your child with Miles Kelly

amomentwithfranca · 3 December 2015 · 50 Comments

I have some exciting news to tell you. As you already know we are huge fans of Miles Kelly. I already told you all about them in a previous post where I reviewed one of their amazing book “Hans Christopher Andersen’s Fairy Tales” and we also ran an amazing book giveaway where we had 3 super lucky winners. Therefore, when they approached me again with a fantastic new campaign for Christmas I was more than happy to be part of it as I genuinely love them!

Miles Kelly is putting together themed book bundles exclusively for Christmas so you then can #GiveTheGiftOf reading beautiful Miles Kelly books to your child! Isn’t this a wonderful idea? Yes of course it is! 🙂

Bella loves books and her bedtime routine always includes a selection of stories from her bookshelf collection. Nick or I love laying down with her and enjoy reading a good book. She is into Farytales and Fiction books at the moment so the lovely people at Miles Kelly prepared a special bundle of Classic Treasury books to add to her existent collection.

We waited until bedtime to open this beautiful book bundle so then Bella was able to pick a story from one of the books. Christmas arrived early to The Desjardins family!! HO HO HO HURRAH!! Bella was super excited because she knows that Miles Kelly Books are beautiful so she was so desperate to open them!

They came all nicely wrapped with a wrapping paper which can be coloured in so Bella was also able to do some colouring instead of just throwing them away. Great idea right? I personally love it, and Bella even more! Yaaay!

The book bundle that we received was their Classic Treasury Gift Set. It comes with 3 beautiful illustrated hardback books for only £20, saving you a massive 55% or £24.97 on RRP. Perfect for children aged 7+ it is a bargain!! For these amazing quality and beautiful illustrations it is the best gift that your kids will love to have for Christmas.

The first book that Bella opened was the Classic Treasury Bedtime Stories which features timeless short stories by favourite authors such as Rudyard Kipling, and are illustrated beautifully by talented children’s artists.

The second book that Bella opened was the Classic Treasury Christmas Stories which is a fantastic hardback storybook, with well-known festive tales and charming illustrations.

Look how beautiful these 2 books are! The illustrations are big and very colourful like all the Miles Kelly’s books we have had

The third book that Bella opened was the Classic Treasury Classic Tales which is a deluxe edition of captivating stories from classic literature.

You can get this great Gift Set and any other special selection of themed books for a special price of £20 but for a limited time only in the lead up to Christmas. These special bundles will be up to 60% off RRP which is a great Christmas saving!

If you are interested in creating your own gift set you can get Miles Kelly’s downloadable Christmas gift guide, which also features the gift set I received for Bella, the Classic Treasury Gift Set.

I also made a short video of Bella thanking Miles Kelly for this beautiful book bundle gift she received for Christmas. I hope you like it! Bella had so much fun doing it.

 

You can also find Miles Kelly on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, and you can also browse around their boards on Pinterest.

What do you think of this gift set? Are you planning on #GivingTheGiftOf reading this Christmas? I hope you do as they are amazing! Please leave me a comment as I would love to hear what you think.

*Disclaimer: I received this item in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and is a genuine representation of what I think about this product.

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

✨Happy Friday✨.Did you have a good week? Unf ✨Happy Friday✨.Did you have a good week? Unfortunately, it wasn’t that good for us because the girls have been under the weather. Bella started first with a sore throat and high fever for a few days and then when Bella got better, Sienna started! She got a horrible cough but no temperature. Her cough was that bad that she couldn’t sleep very well for a couple of nights. They are both much better now and back to school.. The weather hasn’t helped either. It has been so cold lately! I literally feel frozen all the time. Thankfully it is looking better atm as the temperatures are starting to rise. I decided to get my flu vaccine, so I hope it protects me from all these viruses that are going around! Have you had the flu vaccine too? .On another note, I went yesterday to a parents meeting about GCSE options for Bella. I can’t believe she needs to think about it already ahead of Year 9. The time really goes fast. Are your kids dealing with GCSEs too?.📸 Sharing this beautiful bouquet of flowers from @freddiesflowers to brighten up our day.#flowerarrangement #flowerdelivery #bouquetofflowers #flowersmakemehappy #loveflowers #flowersoftheday #flowersoftheweek #flowerlover #freshflowers #flowerobsession #bunchofflowers #foreverflowers #flowersofinstagram #homesweethome
