ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL!!! I found both popular books I’ve been wanting to find, and some treasures I did not know I wanted/needed until I saw them. I am so happy I stopped in. You will be too.

I took my girls by to shop for new books and had such a wonderful experience! Not only did we find a great book option, we painted pottery and found air dry clay and animal puzzles for later projects. Can’t speak highly enough of this lovely bookstore!

Such a quaint book store and the owners are fantastic. I found the $1 each book table and all bets were off.... Walked out with two bags of books. Can't wait to go back.
