One of my favorite bookstores, ever, is Anderson's, I played, or should I say, worked there for six years and never found a more dedicated book of book gobblers. We loved reading and arguing about books. If you need suggestions for best books, great books, award winning books for children, kids, and young adults...this is a great resource.
