Bees continue to fascinate and charm us all – from novice gardeners and nature-lovers to dedicated environmentalists – and today, bees need our help more than ever. Discover the story of these incredible creatures, with The Little Book of Bees.

Bees first appeared on Earth an incredible 130 million years ago. Since the time of the dinosaurs, evolution has taken our beloved bees on an incredible journey – and today, there are 20,000 species on the planet.

The Little Book of Bees is a lovely, informative book of all things bee – from evolution and communication, to honey, beekeeping, and saving the bees – all in a beautifully illustrated gift book.

    How will the gifts be packaged?

    All gifts are wrapped in our acid-free tissue paper and then in handmade decorative paper. We then place them in our letterbox friendly mailing boxes made from 100% recycled materials (they are also recyclable themselves).

    I want to send multiple gifts, how can I do this?

    You can send multiple gifts to the SAME recipient just by adding the multiple gifts to the same order and paying as you would with just one item (paying P&P just once).  Wherever possible, Postboxed will try and pack the items together.  If this is not possible, and packing the items together means they are no longer packaged small enough to fit through post boxes (letterboxes), then we will package them separately (you will not be charged any extra for the P&P).

    If you would like to send gifts to DIFFERENT recipients, then you will have to complete each order separately and pay the P&P for each address the gift(s) are delivered to. 

    If you would like to send a lot of gifts, then please email us using info@postboxed.co.uk or use the contact form below.

    How much does postage cost?

    Postage to the UK: Gifts are packaged within one working day and are sent with the Royal Mail's Tracked 24 Service (delivered within approximately 1-2 working days), with Postage & Packaging FREE for orders over £30 and £4.95 otherwise. 

    Postage to EU countries and Switzerland: Gifts are packaged within one working day and sent using the Royal Mail's Standard International service (delivered within approximately 3-5 working days), with Postage & Packaging costing £14.95. This includes tracking by delivery confirmation and all customs fees and taxes are covered by Postboxed in advance. 

    Unfortunately we are no longer delivering to Sweden, Denmark Estonia and Malta because of unreliable customs authorities in these countries.

    Postage to countries outside of the EU: We deliver to a number of countries outside of the EU using a tracked and/or signed service. Please see our Postage & Packaging page on or more information. 

    Can I choose when my gift(s) are sent?

    Yes, if you do not wish your order to be shipped right away, choose a different delivery date on the bottom left of your shopping cart page. Please allow at least one working day for us to get the gift packaged and sent out and 1-2 days for delivery. Using the Royal Mail's First Class service (as described above), we will ship the order one business day before the desired delivery date. To be completely sure the gift arrives in time we recommend choosing the date before the day you would like the gift to arrive. 

    Please note, gifts are not sent out for shipping by Postboxed on the weekend and no deliveries can be made by the Royal Mail on Sundays. If a Sunday is requested we will aim for the gift to be delivered on the Saturday. Please also note that we cannot guarantee delivery on any particular date as we rely on the Royal Mail's service and do not deliver the packages ourselves.
