This place is so cute. I've always thought it would be cool to have a bookstore for just kids, I just wish it was closer to my house. They have so many great books to get little ones and it's a very kid friendly environment. Everything in the bookstore is priced very reasonably too. In the back they have a little cafe that they sell drinks and ice cream. On certain days you can bring your kids in for book readings. Such a genius idea.

I have visited this store at least a half a dozen times with my son. Each time, we’ve read a few books, and then I’ve made a purchase. I really enjoyed coming here but sadly I was very disappointed in the way I was treated at our last visit. We usually sit and read a few books on the cozy benches that appear to be there for the sole purpose of sitting with your child to look at books. We were not loud or disruptive, we quietly read, handling them with care. After maybe 10 minutes a staff member came up and asked if we needed any help. I politely said no and then was told that “this was not a library. And we could look at the books, as long as we were careful.” Which is…exactly what we were doing. She then continued to hover in the area which made me feel pressured to leave. I had the intention of letting my son pick books to purchase but after that I thought no. It just doesn’t make sense because the entire store as well as their posts on Instagram give the impression that this is a place to take your time looking at books and enjoy the space before making your purchase. Apparently thats all for show. I saw another review with a similar experience about a week before our visit. Perhaps they’ve changed their staff, or at least the way they want the store run. After today, we won’t be going back.

When going to a shop like this, you expect a magical experience. Unfortunately, with what felt like every move our two-year-old and three-year-old made, they were given some sort of behavioral correction by the staff. We felt unwelcome for having children in the store. I wish I had the guts to return our purchase, but didn’t want to cause more of a scene for my children. When we called to see who the staff member was that caused us such discomfort, the manager criticized our parenting philosophy. I wish she could have put herself in our shoes and could understand the realities of having young children.

I can't believe this is a CHILDREN'S bookstore. We brought our children in to shop and felt very unwelcome. The manager kept correcting our children's behavior and even told us our parenting strategy does not match the parenting strategy of the store. Our kids are not misbehaved, they are completely typical children. We did not have any accidents or messes in the store, but the manager continued to intervene. We felt so unwelcome I had to leave with the kids and sit outside while my wife and friends finished in the Cafe.

This is an adorable bookstore geared to kids - and their parents of course. They have books for toddlers to teens and beyond. All the books are arranged to be at the right height for the littles to peruse them. There are also games and stuffed animals - who can resist a stuffed lemur or flamingo? I took my 14 month old granddaughter there and let her wander around - which is the whole idea - and she found 2 books that she wouldn't let go of, so I guess those were her choices. The staff there was great - even the young teens - they were super friendly and said hi to all the little kids, my gd loved waving at them. There are cute painted murals everywhere, chairs and benches to sit on, so the whole store just feels super welcoming. There is also a coffee and snack shop in the back. I'll try that out when my gd is a bit older and able to sit and eat a snack. Please visit and support this local gem!

Fantastic. Cute and very pleasant staff. There is a coffee shop attached. Parents can sit, relax and have a coffee while older kids can go upstairs to look at books. Beautifully decorated. Store is located in a quaint shopping district. Also a used book store and places to get lunch or dinner.

Getting the grandchild a book for Christmas. I love the feel of this local small business. It was a great find on a short trip. I found the perfect book as well. I will be returning very soon.
