‘Once upon a time’ is the theme for this year’s Dawlish carnival week and the bears of The Dawlish Bookshop have decided to celebrate by finding all the best children’s books in the shop to read. We’ve got quite a few … they may be there more than a week (they are quite slow readers!) 🤣📗📒📘📖🎠🎪🎡🎢🎟️

This is Molly and for the last 18 years she has sat beside my laptop as I work, meaning she’s been quietly supporting The Dawlish Bookshop from the day it started ❤️😸

✨ Happiness✨
It doesn’t take much to make David smile.
Plenty of bits of wood, tools, paint, and some quiet time in his shed.
What is it that makes you happy?

📖 Do you know a young reader who would enjoy reading the adventures of The Dittos of Dawlish?

📕Book 1: The Captain of the Black Swan
When a ferocious storm hits the Devonshire seaside town of Dawlish, the sea wall is torn apart unveiling a deep pit below the dangling railway tracks.
Join The Dittos of Dawlish; Tom, Denzil, Lily and Auntie Dot as they investigate whether the devastation was caused by Mother Nature or if sinister magic is at play and more importantly… what lies beneath!
