Visiting this store was one of the highlights of our trip! It is truly delightful! I especially enjoyed sitting in the comfy chair looking through the choices of children's books to make my selection. The owner was a joy to chat with and so welcoming. I would highly recommend visiting. Great atmosphere and great selection of high quality books.

I found this little shop while I was wandering the craftsman village area. This shop has the perfect quiet, laidback vibe! I love little shops like this. The variety of books they had from local to children’s to philosophy/lifestyle is truly awesome. I bought a “mystery” book and a hand painted bookmark by a local artist (I love my mystery book!). Please come out and support this adorable little shop - you will love it too.

Such a lovely bookstore with super nice and helpful owners! I would highly recommend stopping here and perusing the shelves for the perfect book. Thanks for a great experience - my son was thrilled receiving his copy of “The Wild Robot Protects.”

Lovely bookstore. Great selection of books and gifts. I enjoy finding local bookstores while on vacation and was super happy to find this one. I purchased 2 books, a journal, and a hand painted bookmark. Booklovers need to check them out.
