I’m old school and still love a book in my hand vs. Ibooks or Audio. I could go to a bookstore or coffee house and get lost in a book for hours.
In today’s world kids are entering the world of electronics at younger and younger ages, however, I won’t budge on the importance of books with Li.
Books of Wonder UWS location is its 2nd bookstore and located at 217 W 84th. Books of Wonder, started in 1980, by Peter Glassman, is one of the oldest and largest children’s bookstore in NYC. It is cozy, well organized and has an incredible mix of new, classic and collectible books. They have a host of events, including author events and story time.
Every time we visit Li leaves the store with five new books, which is a good thing and something I will never deny him.
Here are some of the books we purchased during an author event meet and greet: Shark Detective by Jessica Olien, Marlo and the Dinosaurs by Christopher Brownie, The Night Knights by Gideon Sterer, In the Past by David Elliott and I am a Cat by Galia Bernstein.
