ENCOURAGE CHILD INDEPENDENCE: The Montessori & Me Front-Facing Bookshelf beautifully displays the covers of your child’s favorite or new books, giving them the freedom to explore those that they find most interesting! Better yet, non-readers can also greatly benefit from the insight into the content of the books based on the cover images!
PROMOTE EARLY READING: Children are naturally drawn to images and pictures on the covers of books, so why keep them hidden with a traditional bookshelf? Instead, showcase engaging and colorful book covers using this Front-Facing Bookshelf to encourage and pique your child’s interest in reading from an early age!
NEW AND IMPROVED DESIGN: Our Front-Facing Bookshelf has been redesigned with much deeper shelves to ensure that all of your children’s books stay in place! Now you can enjoy using this bookshelf for ALL children’s books, small and large without worrying about them toppling over!
QUALITY & LONGEVITY: Crafted from a natural hardwood and designed with interlocking joints, this Front-Facing Bookshelf is built to last! The protective child-safe lacquer coating ensures a smooth and durable finish to keep up with even the wildest daily rough and tumble!
SAFETY GUARANTEED: As with all Montessori & Me materials, this Front-Facing Bookshelf has passed rigorous compliance testing at a CPSC-Accepted laboratory and conforms with all federally regulated safety standards, ensuring that this material is 100% baby and kid-safe!

Great bookshelf
We have a large bookshelf in our living room. I wanted a small one for my Childs room. This was the perfect size, easy to put together for one person and great quality. Thinking about buying a second one for the playroom.

Excellent quality and sturdiness.
Not much to say about this one. It’s beautiful, perfect for my toddler to reach for and choose books, easy to assemble, and withstands a decent amount of jostling. 10/10
Jordan Shelter –
Best Montessori bookshelf for babies/toddlers!
It was so hard to find a Montessori bookshelf for my babyâs nursery and Iâm so glad Montessori & Me designed this perfect bookshelf! It holds the right amount of books that gives plenty options but not overwhelming for kids. The size is compact so it doesnât take too much room and the height is great for little ones to reach. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. Very reasonable price for the high quality wood and considerate design.

Beautiful but impractical
First the good:Its beautifulThe quality of the wood is greatIt was packed well with each individual piece wrapped to avoid scratchesEasy to put together but a little time consuming if put together by one person. It would have been a fast build if I had someone to hold the pieces for me while I screwed it in.The bad:Only one real con but its a huge one… the shelves are incredibly shallow so every tile a book is pulled off the shelf and lightly bumps another book they all come toppling over. If you care how your kids space looks you will constantly be putting every book back on the shelf.As much as I love how it looks I will have to send it back as it won’t work for our needs.

Good quality. Easy assembly
Great book shelf. Perfect for my little one who just turned 12 months and is really interested in books right now. The quality is spot on and my husband took less than 30 minutes to put it together. He said it was super easy and the tool that came with it worked perfectly.
