Zuru Mini Brands Books | Complete List for Collectors

Introduction
Mini Brands Books are tiny editions produced by Zuru as part of their Mini Brands collection. They come in a spherical plastic ‘egg', much like a Kinder Surprise. Each egg contains 5 “surprises” in blind plastic bags, which usually includes 3 mini books, a mini bookmark and an accessory. The ads claim the books are readable, but usually this is just the cover and a few internal pages, with the rest of the story in some sort of alien font (or, even worse, the Dav Pilkey books are blank after the first 3 pages).
The books are completely adorable, in the way that only miniature things like this can be. However, I do need to point out that blind capsule collectibles create a fair amount of waste (hard plastic shells, inner plastic bags, transport of lots of duplicates). If you love the minis but want to minimise your footprint, you can try things like running a local swap list for duplicates, buying individual volumes from eBay, reusing capsules for craft storage, buying minibooks from Etsy, or even making your own.
If you want some bonus titles, the Disney Minibrand series 3 also contained 4 books (amongst other items).
The checklist below covers Series 1 (released October 2023) and Series 2 (released October 2025), including rarity tiers, to help collectors verify what you have and what you’re missing. There were three mid-run variations in series 1 (Stefan's Diaries, Burn Book and Clueless), making those titles more rare than anticipated, and a wave 2 of series 2 with additional books. I've also included a quick link to the matching full-size editions, in case you want to do anything fun with that too.
Please note that some of the links below are affiliate links for which I may be compensated (this does not affect my reviews nor cost you any money, but helps support my site hosting costs). I deeply appreciate your support of my site if you use these links, but warmly encourage you to buy from your local Indie bookshop if you have the opportunity.
Series 2 (2025)
Series 2 was released in May 2025, and contains 39 titles to collect, with 6 bookmarks and 6 accessories for a total of 51 items.
I've kept the original line-up below, but the list changed in late 2025 with a “wave 2” release, adding The Three Musketeers to Iconic status, The Secret of the Old Clock to ultra rare, The Tower Treasure to rare and Fantastic Mr Fox, The War of the Worlds, Without Merit, and The Art of War to common.

Thank you for the this list of the 2 mini book series. You might want to mention that in series 1 Burn Book and Clueless were removed at some point after Stepan’s Diaries the later guide reflects this. I have not seen a guide that had Stepan’s Diaries listed, but guessing it must have been early on in the 2023 release date. (I was fortunate enough to add that book to my collection)

We should probably mention that DogMan books have empty pages.

Good idea – all my Dav Pilkey books are blank actually. I’ve updated the text to mention it.

Mini brands should make a mini version of the communist manifesto😹🙏🙏
