Every child should read a lot. Here's the place to be

they've got a great selection, it's a great atmosphere, and the staff are really knowledgable

Mabel's Fables is the perfect children's bookstore. Set in a vintage store that looks like a gingerbread house, the books are organized by age group to make it easy to find the perfect read for the children you love.

An independant store in the Beach, with a thoughtfully-selected roster of the most imaginative and original children's books. The owner is very knowledgeable about the business of children's books and really has her ear to the ground so if you're a writer or illustrator, chat her up and you may learn something. Oh yes, and they have live rabbits :)

It's small and independent; the owner is knowledgeable; THERE ARE TWO LIVE RABBITS.
