Hedley's Books

Hedley's Books is the oldest family-owned bookstore in New Zealand. From humble beginnings selling newspapers from the back of a pushbike in 1907, to its form as part lending library during the second world war, to the flourishing independent book business it is today - our family has, for over 116 years and counting, been passionate about bringing stories from the world to our readers. A staunch independent, we stock an eclectic range of books for all ages and pride ourselves on matching readers with the perfect book. We're also proud to be the exclusive distributors of Genesis Publications fine limited edition books in Australasia.
