Schools please note: due to the school summer holidays, our last day for delivery of books and furniture orders will be Wednesday 15 July 2026. After that date, we will automatically hold all orders until delivery resumes on Wednesday 2 September. If your school remains open for deliveries during the summer and you would like to receive your order during this time, please get in touch in advance by calling 0121 666 6646 or emailing hello@peters.co.uk.
Non-fiction for primary schools
Whether supporting a curriculum topic, or designed as a leisure read, non-fiction texts are always a great way to engage and motivate children who may not yet have found their love of reading – useful both for allowing pupils to explore their existing interests, and encouraging them to develop new ones.
Non-fiction also:
- Exposes pupils to new words, helping them develop a broad and rich vocabulary
- Develops the critical thinking skills essential to recognising ‘fake news’
- Helps children to navigate the diverse world we live in and the issues they may encounter as they prepare for the transition to secondary school.
If you have a specific theme or topic you'd like recommendations for, get in touch by emailing us at hello@peters.co.uk or call 0121 666 6646.
