A picture-book love letter to bookstores, inspired by a song from award-winning children's songwriter and ukulele player Emily Arrow.

Dear Bookstore, I remember

the first time I ever visited you.

For one little girl, the local bookstore is not only the beginning of her reading journey, it's a world that's always there for her-one that allows her imagination to soar, provides any answers she needs, and sparks her curiosity. It's a place of wishes and dreams, where everybody and every book fits in. There's always someone there who is happy to see her and help find her next exciting chapter. With cozy, fanciful illustrations by Genevieve Godbout and based on musician Emily Arrow's song of the same name, Dear Bookstore is an ode to bookstores, the people who love them, and the books that fill them with magic.
