Gotta love when a bookstore lives up to its name!! This tiny little bookstore had a good selection of books and a cat asleep and ready for pets at the register! The kids loved it and it was possibly the calmest bookstore I’ve ever been in.

I loved being welcomed by a speaker playing bird sounds! What a delightful shop with a friendly owner and adorable (and sleepy) kitty. I was pleasantly surprised by the huge collection of cool post cards and printed art.
