Who we are

Lillie’s Books was established in order to make a difference in the lives of children in need, one book at a time. The founder, Jill Andrews, had a dream of establishing Lillie’s Books in honour of her Grandma Lillie, in whose lap Jill learned the joy of reading. “Some of my earliest happy memories are sitting in the crook of Grandma’s arm listening to her read Winnie-the-Pooh. When I was barely old enough to read, Grandma bought me Heidi and Little Women. These classic stories brought me endless joy and are still amongst my favourite books.”
