Frequently Asked Questions
Kutubooku is a children’s book subscription service that curates and sends personalised book boxes for children between the ages of 0-8 years based on the child’s interests, reading levels, parent’s interests, life events and so on. Kindly refer to this article on Forbes to understand a bit more about what we do and why!
Kutubooku is the only book subscription platform in India that handpicks books for each child based on their individual needs and keeps track of the progress. We use the feedback to continually fine tune the curation and work towards exposing the child to diverse topics to broaden their horizons and support the holistic learning and development. Based on the questionnaire you provide, our expert panel selects the books best suited to your child, which are then delivered to your doorstep on a monthly basis. And this is just the beginning. Our expert team of curators stays in touch with parents throughout the journey to understand what works and what doesn’t. This helps us continue fine-tuning the curation and supporting the child’s growth.
Our curator panel consists of experts in child development and pedagogy.
The panel is headed by our Chief Curator, who is an engineer-MBA grad turned educator, with a Master’s in Curriculum and Teaching from NTU (Singapore). She has worked extensively in education research as part of projects based in Singapore and Finland.
There are a few options to choose from. You can choose to receive 2, 4, or 5 books, curated by our experts based on responses to our detailed questionnaire about the reader. We are quite flexible, and plans can be adjusted with one month’s notice.
We have discontinued the one-time trial boxes. A one-time box represents a very short period to either evaluate the quality of curation or develop a reading habit. We recommend a minimum subscription of three months, as this allows us to receive feedback and fine-tune the curation. As you can imagine, Raising a Reader is a journey, where we are preparing children to develop a habit that lasts for life.
We cater to children aged 0–8 years. If your child is older than 8 and needs help with their reading journey, you can reach out to us at hello@kutubooku.com
, and we would be glad to provide proven strategies and ideas that you can try with your child.
Due to RBI regulations, many payment gateways in India are still in the process of building a robust solution for monthly billing. Currently, we offer only prepaid plans for 3 and 6 months. If you purchase a 6-month plan and wish to cancel later, we allow it after a minimum duration of 3 months. You just need to reach out to us via chat or email at hello@kutubooku.com
.

Shipping and delivery are included within India.
All packages are shipped within 2–3 weeks. We take this time so that our expert team of curators can review all the information we have received about your child's interests, developmental requirements, life stage, and reading levels, etc. This allows the team to curate thoughtfully and send books most suited to your child. We stay in touch with you throughout the process.
We understand that books can sometimes get damaged during shipping. We accept returns for all damaged books and will replace them with new ones. Each month, we also provide a list of the books to be shipped in advance. If you already have any of these books in your library, please let us know, and we will replace them with different books that are not in your personal collection.
Subscriptions can be cancelled anytime after the first three months. Please provide us with one month's notice to cancel your subscription.
Kutubooku gifts are highly valued by parents and caregivers. You can go to the Gifting section from the main menu to gift a subscription. Once the gift is purchased, the Kutubooku team will reach out to the recipient via email and/or WhatsApp and request them to complete a questionnaire. This helps us understand the child better and curate books accordingly. If a parent or caregiver is hesitant to complete the questionnaire, we will still provide the best books for the child’s age group.
