Books Are My Bag 2026 – Limited-Edition Jane Foster Tote (Pre-order) by Jane Foster



Pre-order: dispatched from Saturday 10 October, 2026.
Celebrate Bookshop Day 2026 with this year’s official Books Are My Bag tote, designed by the illustrator and textile designer Jane Foster.
Jane’s bold, mid-century-inspired style brings two bookish characters to life: a cosy bear and a curious cat. Each one is lost in a good book and wears a pair of bright orange reading glasses. It’s a cheerful, graphic design that booklovers will want to carry everywhere. This long-handled shopper is made from sturdy 100% cotton canvas. It has a roomy gusset with plenty of space for your latest haul, and it’s printed with the “Books Are My Bag” slogan and Jane’s signature.
Only a limited number are made each year, and the Books Are My Bag totes are always in demand. Pre-order now to avoid missing out.
