Home Use Children’s Book Display Rack

Since having children, parents have gradually purchased numerous picture books for their kids, who have learned a great deal from these diverse stories. However, with so many books accumulated, storage becomes a challenge.

If picture books are displayed sideways and lined up uniformly, children cannot see the front covers, and it becomes inconvenient for them to pull out the books they want to read.

For children, the front cover illustrations are far more captivating. Therefore, purchasing a children’s picture book display rack is recommended. Once home, frequently read books can be placed on the rack.

Key specifications:

The rack stands 93cm tall, measures 60cm in length, and has a base width of 37cm. It features five tiers, with space for two storage boxes at the very bottom. Each storage box measures 36cm in length and 28cm in width.

I’ve personally used this display for over three years and find it highly practical. My child can instantly locate desired books while browsing, and putting them back afterward is effortless—helping develop organizational skills.

This type of rack comes in various sizes. The one I purchased is compact—it fits neatly into any corner of the home. Since the books displayed can be swapped out anytime, I don’t recommend buying an overly large rack, as it would take up too much space.

Bookstores Cardboard Picture Books Display Rack

For bookstores and supermarkets specializing in children’s picture books, corrugated cardboard display racks are a more common choice. Unlike home-use picture book displays, these commercial racks typically hold a larger quantity and variety of books. They also feature themed displays for different holidays and seasons, and the paper racks are easier to swap out and more cost-effective.

Q1: Is the cardboard display rack designed to fit different sizes of picture books?

Yes. It has adjustable layered slots or fixed partition spacing that matches common picture book dimensions—from small 8-inch toddler board books to large 12-inch story picture books. The layered height is also optimized to prevent thick picture books from tilting or falling off.

Q2: Can the display rack keep picture books organized and easy for kids to access?

Absolutely. It adopts a low-to-high layered design, which is perfectly aligned with kids’ standing or sitting height. Picture books can be placed face-out with covers visible, so children can quickly find their favorite titles without rummaging. The smooth cardboard edges also avoid scratching little hands.

Q3: Is this rack suitable for displaying picture books at home story corners and bookstore promotion areas?

Yes. For home story corners, its lightweight and foldable design saves space when not in use. For bookstore promotion areas, it can be customized with colorful prints to highlight new picture book releases. It’s also portable enough to move between different display spots in supermarkets or parent-child malls.

Q4: How to prevent picture books from getting damp when placed on the cardboard display rack?

The rack is made of water-resistant coated corrugated cardboard, which can resist slight moisture. For better protection, you can place it away from humid areas like windows or sinks, and put a thin moisture-proof mat under the rack if used in damp environments. This keeps picture books dry and intact.

Q5: Can the display rack hold a large number of picture books without collapsing?

Yes. It’s constructed with reinforced cardboard at key load-bearing parts, such as the bottom base and layer supports. A single rack can hold 30–50 picture books (depending on book thickness) without bending or collapsing. Just make sure to distribute the weight evenly across each layer for long-term stability.
