Coming to Sunbury, Victoria late 2026.

Lily and Hugo’s is first and foremost, a bookstore for kids.

Designed to cater for kids throughout all stages of learning development, Lily and Hugo’s will range a diverse collection of books, engaging with common trends while also highlighting and celebrating local Australian authors and illustrators.

Our mission is to spread the joy and importance of reading to and with our children. Exposing children to reading at a young age is proven to benefit them throughout their developmental years and the team at Lily and Hugo’s want to be part of that journey for families.

Our Bookstore Vision

Weekday Story Time

We will have a 30 minute morning story time available every day Monday - Friday for kids and their supervising adult.

End Of The Day Crafts

While the crafting table will be open for use all day, specific craft activities will be available for 1 hour from 3:30PM - 4:30PM, Monday - Friday.

Monthly Competitions

Whether it's colouring, book reviewing or storytelling, there will be a competition every single month of the year giving kids the opportunity to win fantastic prizes!

Keen an eye on our social media, website or chat to the staff in store for competition details once the store opens.
