Portland has fantastic kid‘s bookstores, so it’s extremely hard to make a choice (why am I doing this anyway?) Hands down, this one is my favorite. Brilliantly curated and super knowledgeable staff.

Adorable! Reasonably priced. They have a loyal customer base, so even the other customers are friendly. The story times on Fridays are also musical and sweet!

So many children’s books! As wide a selection as you’ll find, from board books to young adult, plus they even have a wall of choices for grownups.
