Just a few ideas...
My daughter admires Short Stack Editions cookbooks - so we have started to carry them. It will make it easy for me to do my Christmas shopping. Terry has brought in the new Adele CD as well as Christmas CDs by the Good Lovelies and Jann Arden. Colouring books for adults are the fun new trend. I am keeping my fingers crossed we will have colouring posters from OMY before Christmas. If you like Winnie the Pooh, I highly recommend the new children's book Finding Winnie.
Why we love our bookshop...It could be a good book recommendation, reading to a little friend or meeting someone new to our community. Every day we have an encounter which makes us happy. Thanks to all of you who support our store. We wish you a Merry Christmas and happy holidays with friends, fine food and good books .

Lindsay hadn't been to Almonte since 2010.
"You recommended the book Bloody Jack to me 5 years ago. It changed my life!" Heartwarming.

We never anticipated an invitation to the Governor General's Literary Awards. It was an amazing and inspiring evening. It takes a community to get Mary ready for a gala!

Glenda Jones surprised and delighted me with the delivery of roses "just because" a project of the rotary club. Just because of people like Glenda, we love running this store.
