- 6 easy steps to make a bookworm’s ultimate Christmas stocking
1. Forget the stocking...
Ditch the socks and use an iconic Penguin tote bag instead. Pick the recipient’s favourite title and they’ll use their bag for book shopping all year round!
2. Start with a classic...
A stunning tote needs a beautiful book to match. We’ve gone for an elegant Clothbound Classic to make ours extra special.
3. Add a few festive books...
Your favourite book lover will be itching to curl up with a seasonal read, and we’ve got some crackers to choose from. Delight fans of Regency romance with Georgette Heyer’s Snowdrift, captivate arty types with the William Morris illustrations in V&A: The Twelve Day of Christmas, or treat the creative and crafty to Johanna Basford’s Christmas-inspired colouring adventure.
4. Choose a notebook...
They’ll love jotting down book reviews or making a start on their own novel in a notebook inspired by their favourite Penguin paperback. Can’t choose? We love this one featuring a whole shelf of Penguin spines. It’s almost too gorgeous to write in.
5. Print out a Penguin bookmark and game…
Losing your page steals valuable reading time! Help them avoid it by downloading and printing one of our free bookmarks and adding it to their haul. The seriously well-read will also love testing their book knowledge with our printable Classic Books crossword. Don’t forget to add in a pencil and the solutions!
6. Make it personal...
It’s time to fill up the gaps with your book-lover’s favourite treats. Tie the handles with colourful ribbons or tinsel, then hang up your tote for your special someone to find on Christmas morning.
Your stocking is complete!
