Seven Stories, the National Centre for Children's Books is a museum and visitor centre dedicated to children's literature and based in the Ouseburn Valley, Newcastle upon Tyne, close to the city's regenerated Quayside. The renovated Victorian mill in which it is housed has seven levels.[1] It is the first and only museum in the UK wholly devoted to the art of British children's books.[2] Their archive is housed in a separate building in Felling.[3]
