One of my favorite things about stocking books?

Lining up all the gorgeous sprayed edges and admiring them before they head home with their new readers. ✨📚

📚 A day in the life of a mobile bookstore owner… 🦊

Every market day starts long before the first customer walks through the trailer doors. Come along for the ride!

Slide 1: New book deliveries + fresh bookish merch. Christmas morning for a bookstore owner. 🤍

Slide 2: Sorting, stocking, and finding a home for every new arrival in the trailer.

Slide 3: Mandatory millennial car selfie before hitting the road. 😅

Slide 4: The bookstore is stocked, styled, and officially open!

Slide 5: New totes, Blind Date with a Book bundles, and other bookish items ready for shoppers.

Slide 6: One of my newest favorite additions, handcrafted Book Buddies from a local woodworker! Perfect for holding your book open while you read.

Slide 7: Sunshine = happy bookstore owner.

Slide 8: My favorite view… seeing the trailer all set up and ready to welcome readers.

Slide 9: A visit from my favorite Children’s Book Selector & Liaison (aka my daughter). She takes her job very seriously 🥰🙌🏻

Thank you to everyone who shops small, recommends books, waves when they see the trailer around town, or simply stops by to say hello. You’re helping make this little bookstore on wheels possible, and I’m so grateful for this community 🦊❤️📚
