Insanely rude employee (Diana). Our 3 year old pressed a button on an interactive book on display. We were forced to buy the book because he "touched it too much." We bought the book and were informed that our children needed "better parents". Will never return, would encourage anyone with children to stay away. Touch books at your own risk.

My favorite tradition every time we go on a trip is to buy books at a local bookstore. We are a family of readers, and while we were shopping my 4 year old wanted me to read him a book. (Pretty normal behavior for a bookstore.) As I sat down with my pile of books I was about to buy we were informed that this wasn’t a library and we couldn’t just read the books. As someone who cares deeply about literacy and tries very hard to foster a love of books with my son, this behavior was extremely disappointing. I hope this behavior is addressed and remedied for future book lovers.

My family loves reading and supporting small businesses so we were excited to take my twin three year olds to pick out some new books. After picking out a stack of books to buy, the owner walked up to me and informed me I had to buy a noise-making board book one of my sons had been pushing for several minutes before putting it back (on the lower shelf, at his eye level) because she can’t sell it after it being pushed over and over again apparently. I then put all of the other books I had intended to purchase back and only purchased this book. When my husband intervened and said we weren’t buying this, she told me that we should be better parents for allowing him to play with a book that was displayed at his level. This experience was extremely disappointing and saddening. I will be sure to never shop at this store ever again and would encourage anyone else with small children to do the same.

Very rude and, clearly, not child friendly. Be careful that you don't look at books for too long. You may be forced to buy. Last time we will be supporting this local bookstore. Too bad the rudeness tarnished our experience.

Great selection of books, yet cozy and not overwhelming inside. Owners are wonderful! Complimentary bookmarks too. Support local bookstores and libraries!
