Welcome to the home of Attic Door, the book-lovers' bookmaker, and keeper of this fine storytelling room...

Now that you're here, we insist upon your comfort... So, please, feel at ease to click your heels and kick off your boots, grab a warm blanket from Old Mother Hubbard's cupboard near the entrance, and like that roguish Goldilocks, find yourself a fit that is Just Right...

We’ve spun our magical corner clutching the tail-end of the sky to suit your needs. And though our collection be small, it is cosy and inviting in all hours when the soul seeks some company.

Follow Princess Tambudzai, she’ll lead you on the adventures of Lady Josa Pean and the most mischievous Reading Aloud Book of all…

And if you’re the sort who judges a book by a little more than its cover (however spectacular that cover may be), our first available Attic Door title, Notes from a Night Bus and Other Stories by Clayton Truscott ,has brought along a taster to Show ’n Tell…...

Sometimes, however, a warm cup of cocoa and a good picture book fits the bill, and here, Steven ‘Joffy’ Carter, Illustrator Extraordinaire, provides the alchemy for this very occasion... And for more, befriend us as 'Attic Door' on Facebook, where you can view Joffy's illustrations further, with the treat to download his illustrative computer desktops!

For those twitchin' pens and a mind that wants scribblin' into the wee hours, you may want  to  have a gander at Attic Doorian, Nadine Larter's, side project and online poetry collection, The Poetry Project, boasting treasures from all corners of the Cape. Nadine is constantly on the hunt for rare gems and so if yours is a poem squealing to be let out, this could be the site for you...

Finally, find the latest contributions of Attic Door's most unwavering music zealot, Michael Coetzer, inspired by the musings of Valentine's Day, on his  romantic conclusions, in our newly launched music blog, Gramophone Roar. Here, too, Ross Truscott explores the marketing and music behind the 'nomadic blues' of Niger's Etran Finatawa... While, Jocelyn Fryer discusses the art, love and beauty in children's books in our blog, Attic Door Loves Books.
