“300 square feet of Books, Gifts, and Toys”
Located in Ross Township near McCandless, The Tiny Bookstore is a 300 square foot bookstore selling bestsellers, bargain books, gifts, toys, and collectibles. When people walk into the store, the second thing they mention after saying, “This really is a tiny bookstore!” is that we have a broad and unpredictable assortment of books and merchandise. Which makes sense. Since we are tiny, you aren’t likely to find a particular book if you walk in looking for it.* We carry a wide variety of books that Lea finds interesting, so we’re pretty sure you’ll find a book you’ll love that you didn’t necessarily know existed.
*If you are looking for a particular book, you can order it from us online or send us a text message and we’ll get it for you
