The Bookshop on the Green
Inspiring Curiosity. Sparking Conversations.
Welcome to The Bookshop on the Green, which is nestled in the heart of Bournville, Birmingham.
The Bookshop on the Green is run by social enterprise Green Heart Books CIC founded by Sarah Mullen, a multiple award-winning Arts Producer and Director.
Warm and welcoming, The Bookshop on the Green sells a wide range of carefully curated titles for both adults and children, along with beautiful
cards, and puts on wonderful and memorable events throughout the year.
It also provides pop up bookstalls for festival and theatre events
including for Birmingham Literature Festival.
The Bookshop on the Green was shortlisted as Midlands Regional Finalist for Independent Bookshop of the Year 2020 and has recently been
nominated for a Muddy Stilettos Award 2023 for Best Bookshop in Warwickshire and the West Midlands!
We're open Wednesdays-Saturdays 9am-4pm. Stay tuned to our Facebook page for the latest news and events.
Order books to collect in store by emailing: hello@bookshoponthegreen.com.
Can't come to the shop? Shop online with us at bookshop.org, where you can browse our booklists or simply search under a title or author.
We LOVE books and everything that a good book can inspire.
From seeing a young child captivated by a beautifully illustrated picture book to losing ourselves in an author’s imaginary world.
From being challenged in our thinking by new ideas to seeing the world afresh.
From curling up with a good book to having a great conversation about a book.
From laughing out loud or being moved to tears by a book.
Come and browse our thoughtfully-curated stock of books. Our friendly team are here to help with recommendations. And if there's any book you're after that's not on the shelves we can order it in for collection within 3 days. Email us: hello@bookshoponthegreen.com
Our online shop is at bookshop.org
“This is great. I don't have to traipse into town or inflate the profits of a multinational company to get hold of a particular book.John N
I can use a friendly and efficient small shop that gets hold of books quickly and benefits the local community. I heartily recommend it.”
