Little Shop of Stories wins Big Award

Hip, hip, and hooray for Little Shop of Stories, which won a 2010 Women’s National Book Association Pannell Award recognizing “retail bookstores that excel at inspiring the interest of young people in books and reading.”

The award includes a $1,000 award, which might come-in handy when Little Shop Stories is forced to hire a cleaning crew to collect all the apple strudel crumbs, severed kitten whiskers and cream-colored pony droppings inevitably left behind by the notoriously rowdy fans of Julie Andrews.

    WNBA names point guard Diane Capriola MVP. D-Cap, as she is known to teammates, leads league in rebounds.

    Little Shop of Stories is such a positive addition to our community and schools! It’s made a reader out of one of my non-reading-prone children! Thanks LSOS!
