Amazing selection of children's books. I want to support our local bookstore but it's hard when the staff is so cold and unfriendly. Will take my business elsewhere where employees are more friendly to those who still want to shop locally for books.

A wonderful range of authors and books. A very pleasant environment for browsing.
