Seller rating: This seller has earned a 5 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers.

The Book Worm Bookstore originally opened its doors in October 2005. With the owner ready to retire, new ownership happened in November 2020. We are home to over 30,000 titles - both new and used. Although the majority of our inventory is online we do have in-store items not listed. Please contact the store directly if there is something you don't see.

We just joined Biblio in May 2020, and with the change of ownership, are finding some inconsistencies with our database. Since items come and go daily, we may have a higher rate of rejecting orders so our rating may not be stellar for a bit. Don't hold it against us as we are working diligently to get our database updated. Thank you for supporting your local community bookstore.

Media reviews

"Bunting perfectly captures the intergenerational love and respect shared by these two characters and the man's strong sense of honesty and integrity. Himler's softly colored illustrations reflect the feelings of the characters and setting." School Library Journal
