NORTHSHIRE SELECTS - ONCE UPON A MONTH 
Give the magical gift of reading to the children in your life!
Let Northshire's professional booksellers help you inspire the child/children of your life with a love of reading throughout the year.
Once Upon a Month is an annual program in which our expert booksellers send one great book a month to the child/children of your choice based on his/her age, gender, reading ability and interests.
How Does It Work?
All you have to do is sign up and give us the pertinent information about the child/children. We will bill your credit card monthly when the book is sent out.
The typical monthly charge to your credit card, including shipping, will be between $10-$20, but will never exceed $25.
We will gift wrap the book and enclose a card indicating who the book is from.

Testimonial
"My husband I enrolled three of our grandsons in Once Upon A Month three years ago hoping that it would help them learn to love to read the way we do. The results have been beyond anything we could have wished for. All three are now enthusiastic readers. Please understand that these are not nerds or geeks, but frog-catching, lacrosse playing, video gaming, all-around boys who read books just because they like to. The Northshire staff are amazing at selecting books that are just right for each one's age and interest. We get enthusiastic "thank you" phone call from each of them the day that the package arrives. The youngest of our grandsons often calls us at 6:00am because he's gotten up to read and he wants to share something in the book with us.
We can't think of a better (or more fun) way to spend our money..."
