Woods in the Books New Bahru

Fantastic selection of books for both children and adults. What keeps me coming back year after year is the thoughtful curation and the expert staff who always offer spot-on recommendations. It’s clear they understand what makes a great book for every age. Always a joy visiting Woods in the Books! p.s. Yes, there’s a no-photo policy (posted on the door, I believe). It’s a simple request—just ask if you’d really like to photograph something specific (e.g., to remember a title). Asking permission is good practice in any store!

No photo allowed but this is just a quick snap of that beautiful painting which basically everywhere and really attracts your attention. Pet-friendly which is awesome and the books selection is really unique, lots of creative inspiration can be found here. I got myself this title - “A Little History of Poetry”.

✳️ Came here to browse through the books and children's storybooks and found many interesting books on sale. 🔵 The shop also sells many charming greeting cards and some stationery paper writing items. 🌸 I bought a pretty Dragonfly greeting card.💙 It's so beautiful.

I had an unpleasant experience with one of the staff members, particularly a lady with short hair and glasses who came across as unfriendly and unapproachable. This was surprising, as I have never encountered such customer service before. I had called beforehand to confirm the exchange policy with a staff member named Mike, who was helpful, but the in-store interaction completely changed the experience. I came mainly for the books, but the poor attitude affected the overall visit. I hope the management can review staff training and customer service standards to ensure a better experience for future customers.

A lovely bookshop with an exceptional selection of children’s books. Perfect for gifts too, although they don’t do giftwrapping. Not to mention the decor— they’ve done up the place so beautifully.

Lovely bookshop. So nicely done up. We always try to buy something when we visit. I felt heart pain though looking at how rough some kids were with the books. I wish their parents would teach them to cherish books. I noticed there were more adult books in this branch，which was good. Apparently no photos allowed.

Always able to find a book that I want, and build up my collection of children's books. As a young child from a not-so-well-to-do family, buying books was a luxury but now as a working adult, I can rationally indulge in my children's books collecting habit.

Good book options for kids and teenagers.
