Unlock Worlds of Knowledge with Penrose Reads

Our Story: Igniting a Passion for Learning

Penrose Reads was founded in the historic city of Oxford, inspired by its centuries-old tradition of academic excellence and literary heritage. Our journey began with a simple yet profound realisation: in a world saturated with fleeting digital content, the profound depth and enduring impact of books are often overlooked. We believe that books are not just sources of information; they are gateways to empathy, critical thinking, and a richer understanding of the world and ourselves.

From our humble beginnings in a small bookshop nestled in the heart of Oxford, we've grown into a passionate team of curators, educators, and book lovers dedicated to making quality educational content accessible to everyone. We are driven by the belief that learning is a lifelong adventure, and books are the most reliable companions on this journey. Our mission extends beyond simply delivering books; we aim to cultivate a community of learners, spark intellectual curiosity, and foster a deep appreciation for the written word.

Our commitment to quality is unwavering. Each book box is thoughtfully assembled, considering not only the educational value of the selected titles but also their ability to engage, inspire, and challenge our readers. We delve into a diverse range of subjects, from the intricacies of scientific discovery to the nuances of historical narratives and the boundless realms of philosophical thought. We meticulously select books that are not only informative but also beautifully written and profoundly insightful.

At Penrose Reads, we are more than just a book box service; we are a community of learners, thinkers, and dreamers. We are rooted in Oxford, but our vision is global. We strive to bring the transformative power of education to doorsteps around the world, one carefully curated book box at a time. We believe in the power of reading to change lives, to broaden horizons, and to empower individuals to reach their full potential. Join us as we continue to write our story, page by page, book by book.

We are committed to sustainable practices, ensuring our packaging is eco-friendly and our operations minimise environmental impact. We also actively support local Oxford bookshops and independent publishers, contributing to the vibrant literary ecosystem that inspires us every day. Our values are deeply embedded in ethical sourcing, intellectual integrity, and a genuine passion for education.
