By Maria Kessler1 min read
The rug in the kids' corner at Dog-Eared Books seats twenty, and on Saturday mornings every spot is taken.
New and used
Half the shelves hold used books bought from neighbours, which keeps prices low and the stock surprising.
Special orders
Anything in print can be ordered and is usually on the counter within three days.
