Who would've thought? Three words: FAB.U.LOUS!

I've passed by this store a dozen times and never did I think to walk in, even though I love books. (Honestly, I think the name is why I couldn't bring myself to do it before ... ugh, what is with all the lame names on Montana???!) Anyway, I am soo glad I finally made it in! This shop rocks! Like, beyond measure. I've been back several times now and I think what makes it so special, other than the friendly & very informed folks working there, is the unique stuff they carry surrounding the books ... things like one-of-a-kind art from the authors/illustrators, and really cool lithographs (I just got one from Eric Carle!!) and other special items like original sketches from Disney books and the like. There are cool cards for birthdays, etc.., puzzles, toys (like Wooly Willy) and charms all related to classic and new children's literature. While you won't find any discounts here, you will find special gifts for adults & kids that you can't really find anywhere else.

• Pros: Just about everything
• Cons: No sales!
