Independent Bookstore Day!

Ghosts of Independent Bookstores Past: Bright Side Bookshop in Flagstaff, Arizona // The Well-Read Moose in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho // Boulder Bookstore in Boulder, Colorado // Powell's Books in Portland, Oregon // Book Traders in Spokane, Washington // The Book Exchange in Casper, Wyoming // Bookmans in Flagstaff, Arizona // Fabled in Waco, Texas // The Country Book Shelf in Bozeman, Montana 

I don't mean to brag or anything but MY BIRTHDAY FALLS ON INDEPENDENT BOOKSTORE DAY THIS YEAR!!

I will be visiting an independent bookstore (or two?!) and I will be reading something set in a bookstore (one of these?!).

These are the bookstore-themed picture books I have loved.

๐Ÿ Books Aren't for Eating (secular)... My very favorite on this list, goodness. Goat has the coziest bookstore life but has his hands full with his toughest customer yet- a fellow goat who keeps EATING the books! We love this book.

๐Ÿต Curious George Goes to a Bookstore (secular)... You likely already know about Curious George but just in case you don't, these are lots of fun. The bookstore one is just as cute as the others.

๐Ÿ• Dog Loves Books (secular)... Short, simple, and pro-reading. This one made my girls smile.

๐ŸŒ† Good Night Little Bookstore (secular)... Very short and simple, fun for considering the inner workings of a bookstore. Has a bit of a Goodnight Moon feel to it.

The Mystery of Magillicuddy's Gold (Christian)... Two little boys discover a map in a bookstore which leads to some pretend pirate fun, and eventually to the best treasure- The Bible. 

I hope you all have an opportunity to check out + support an independently owned bookstore tomorrow!
