Little Box of Books - Expert Impact

Lynsey Pollard,

Little Box of Books

Met with Hugh Chappell

Little Box of Books sells inclusive and representative children’s books to families and schools, helping more children see themselves in the books they read and helping all children to better understand the world and their place in it.

Having an hour to discuss my business and my ideas with Hugh was such a privilege. There is a lot of business advice out there but getting one on one time with such an astute and intuitive entrepreneur is invaluable. I can’t wait to action what we chatted about.
