My last stop of the day was in Vernon CT where owner Barbara has recently opened Jack and Allies: A Children's Bookstore. It is a beautiful space and while it was quiet when I was there (I had just missed story time) I can see the potential that Barbara feels. We had a great conversation as she talked about the kindness of other independent bookstore owners sharing their knowledge.
I bought Hug Time by Patrick McDonnell and Miracle Mud: Lena Blackburne and the Secret Mud That Changed Baseball by David A. Kelly.
