## What is Little Bookshelf?

Little Bookshelf is a family library for your child’s books: the ones they own, the ones they love, and the ones they might enjoy next.

Add books by searching, scanning a barcode, or entering them manually. Save the cover, author, ISBN, notes, dates, and memories so your child’s bookshelf becomes more than a list of titles.

For books that were given by family or friends, you can record who gave them and when, helping preserve the story behind special favourites.

Keep a separate wishlist for books your child would love next. Share it before birthdays, Christmas, or family visits so relatives know which books to choose and can avoid buying duplicates.

Sign in with Apple to sync across your devices, manage multiple child libraries or households, and invite family members to view or contribute. Relatives can browse in the app or open a shared shelf page in any browser.

Features include:

-Track your child’s book collection
-Add books by search, barcode scan, or manual entry
-Save covers, authors, ISBNs, notes, dates, and memories
-Record who gave a book, when relevant
-Keep wishlist books separate from owned books

-Share browser-friendly shelf pages with relatives
