Reviews of Little Shop of Stories

Chloe Spencer

Absolutely love this place! This is a wonderful store with a wide selection of children's books, and they also host a variety of events here. This is a prime location in the heart of Decatur, closeby to other shops, parking, and restaurants. The booksellers are knowledgeable and friendly. I also like their website and online ordering system; I have very rarely had issues with them, and they pay close attention to any notes that I may leave (like telling them what days I plan to pick up items.) The decorations and atmosphere are also incredible; whimsical, bright, and exciting. There's so much to love here!

Joe Borrillo

Cute little bookstore in downtown Decatur. Friendly staff and they do story time for kids with crafts and a treat. Love this place. Note that the prices are more expensive than Amazon because supporting a small business that needs to make a profit is more important than a large business that can take a loss on some items. Just saying…

Elliott George

Great children’s book store. They have a huge selection and I’ve found some good gifts here, including things like journals.

Cat

Been here a couple times and the sellers have a bit of a snooty attitude. For a bookstore with a large staff in one of the most diverse cities in the world, why is EVERYONE who works here white? Something is off.

Natalia Santana-Pollard

This was one of the places we were most looking forward to going. It had books that I've never seen at my big box bookstore at home and had great staff that was super helpful. They have a whole room dedicated to a play area like Good Night Moon and have just the greatest collection of stuff. 10/10 would recommend as a family friendly activity for kids of all ages.

Erin S.

Little Shop of Stories is the cutest local bookstore. They have a great selection of children’s books, young adult books, and books for adults. They have regularly scheduled book signings with authors and illustrators, but you have to purchase the book there in order to get it signed. Check out their website for their author and illustrator signing events. They have entertainment for the kids, with a little playroom with a toy train set and other toys. It is decorated like the book “Goodnight Moon”. The rest of the store is colorful and bright, with cute and thoughtful decor. They have a fake Platform 9 3/4 made by a local artist. Part of the floor is covered in pennies, which is very cool. Their prices are definitely higher than what you’d find on Amazon, but it’s a local bookstore, so I’m usually willing to spend a few extra dollars to support it. Highly recommend!

Chris Michel

Great little bookstore with lots to offer. Staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. More focused on children's books but also has a good selection of young adult and popular fiction and non-fiction books on hand. Great place in the heart of Decatur.

Britny P

This place is such a gem. First of all, as a mom having a place to go for a great story time is amazing :) they really put great effort into making it a worthwhile trip. Also, the decor is like stepping into a few of your favorite books and a special treat for kids and parents. Also, their collection of books is amazing. You will find a great book for anyone here !! I love supporting local businesses and this is one you should support.

David Jordan

Little Shop of Stories is my favorite independent bookstore in the greater Atlanta. In fact, let's just say it's my favorite in all of Georgia. What a terrific place with a fantastic selection of children's books and an incredibly knowledgeable and helpful staff. Grownups will also find plenty of titles to choose from and I always make sure to stop in and buy something new to read every time I am anywhere near the neighborhood. Go see the amazing collection of unique and personalized artwork by the many children's authors and illustrators that have visited the store for readings and other special events, which occur with impressive frequency.

Jessica Sword

This shop was magical. There is a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It has a fantastic selection of books for children of all ages, a reading book that you enter through Platform 9 3/4, another adorable room to read in or play with the train table, and a beautiful floor made of pennies. You may stop in to buy a book, but you'll stay for the experience.

Kimmy Stardust

really cool book store with one of Atlanta's tiny doors! Lots of neat artwork hung everywhere. Plus a Goodnight Moon room and Platform 9 and 3/4

Mark Mimbs

A very quaint bookstore felt like a scholastic book fair and it was overall awesome to meet ransom Riggs author of the peculiar children series

Dianna Locke

This is the best bookstore in the world!!! Come check out the activities for all ages! You will loose track of time be prepared to stay awhile.

Vance Shofner

This is another great bookstore (most all locally owned ones are - everywhere). What I really appreciate about this one is the outstanding knowledge-base of the staff. My kids have always read, and the staff here has been able to discuss the books my kids are reading with them and make (seemingly) insightful suggestions for other authors/series. How they obtain and retain this kind of reference memory of children and teen literature is beyond me, and they are super nice and passionate about what they are doing. Another, smaller, plus here is they are happy to wrap books if they are to be presents (they strangely skilled at gift wrapping to....). It's a great bookstore very much worth the effort to get to (parking can be challenging). They also have an assortment of adult books to, which they curate in different ways I find useful.

Nina Nakhle

This is a charming little book store with lots of children's books and educational toys. My son loves to visit here and we always come out with something interesting. The staff often do story times at festivals and other events around decatur. All the staff are wonderful and so helpful!

Michaela Markova

This is such an amazing place, kid's/parents'/teachers' dream come true. It's a safe space where people are not only allowed to but inspired to dream /imagine/explore/travel to distant places and futures, nothing is impossible. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful too. Brace yourselves as you might spend a fortune, but it's definitely worth it!

Julianne Smith

Lovely store, great atmosphere, so many books. What more can you ask for?

Sarah Brownlee

I love this bookstore! Knowledgeable, friendly staff, always ready to offer assistance or just let you browse. Will happily order any titles not in stock!

Keith Beckman

I've been walking by this place for years, but only ever late at night when they were closed, bc that's the only time I'm ever on the square. So when I was there Sunday for lunch, I took the opportunity to FINALLY explore it. And I'm so glad I did! Walked out with a new NK Jemison book I hadn't read yet, and they also wrapped up three of my favourite picture books for my niece! The selection is great. It's definitely focused more towards children's books (picture books through YA), but they have a well-curated selection of non-kids-lit as well. And when I say "well curated", I don't mean "just the current bestsellers", but "that librarian who's always making sure a diverse selection of authors are on the front display". I'm an avid reader, and I was introduced to authors I'm going to be exploring more in the future, just by browsing the shelves. Thanks for such a great experience! I can tell this is a book store that strives to make a difference, not just a buck!

Alan Thornton

Little Shop is one of the great places to visit in Decatur, GA. They’ve served the area for decades with a great selection of books for every family member, not just kids. But, for children’s books, they are the best you’ll find. They make terrific suggestions when you ask for something appropriate and wonderful for children of certain ages and interests or for people of any age, for that matter. You’ll never be stuck without a great gift. They’re wonderfully community minded and sponsor excellent book clubs for all ages.

Zachary Guerrero

This is an amazing local bookstore you’ll have a hard time finding anywhere else. They truly care about their little shop and the authors that support it. I had an amazing experience my first time there when I got to meet an author who was doing a book signing back in March. The owner of the store gave me a gift card that was just enough to buy the new book and get it signed, he even waived off taxes for the sale. I feel horrible for not having left a review for months on end and it has haunted me ever since until now. I have nothing but positive things to say about this little shop, I truly hope they stay here for years on end.

Megan Fuller

Knowledgeable, kind staff. Great story times. Lots of book activities for kids. They also deliver books within a certain distance from the story when you order! We love this place

LeeAnne Lynch

I LOVE Little Shop! They have an amazingly curated selection of adult literature in addition to all the kids books. I always end up leaving with a book or two for myself, in addition to something for my kids. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. They have great events and are really involved in the community. It’s a great place to shop for a birthday gift for a kid or an adult. This bookstore is a happy vibrant place and we are lucky to have them here in Decatur!

Sofia Johnson

We first found this bookstore in 2010 and we are eternally grateful. Great atmosphere. Amazing staff. Fun events. It's a MUST visit.

Sara Gard

Fantastic independent book store! We went for a child's birthday party in the upstairs area, and they provided a book reader/story teller who the kids loved. We took the time to look around the store afterwards, and found items for kids and parents alike. The staff is very engaging and love to help you find your next favorite read. What a perfect place to shop local!

Whitney DeRosa

I love, love, love this book store!! They have a lovely, warm space with a great selection of children's and adult books. They specialize in children's books, but they do sell adult stuff also. While the adult selection isn't huge, it's very well curated. All of the staff there are friendly and knowledgeable and I trust their recommendations. It's exactly what you want a neighborhood bookshop to be.

Pamela Lawrence

Amazing local bookstore. They have adult, teen and all ages and stages of kids books, gifts, quiet activities and more. They will purchase anything they don't have. They also host birthday parties, summer camps, and other events. Great place for gift cards or birthday gifts.

Suzanne Dieter

Our first visit was amazing! I took our two year old on Thursday for circle time at 11am, and I can't wait to take him back again. The reader was so good, he did all the voices in the books and my son really enjoyed it. Bubble time was his favorite, and the songs were mine! The store itself is packed with great kids books and a little play area with a twin table. The room is even made to look like the room in Goodnight Moon. We plan on returning tomorrow for more story/circle time! Thank you, Little Shop of Stories, for such a great outing with my boy!

Stephanie Hardy

Little Shop of Stories is a delight! This place is my go to for kids books and my own adult/YA purchases. I asked for "science books for 5 year olds" and the person helping me was awesome! My nephew loved the books he got. So much better than my recent B&N trip, where the staff was either clearly unhappy or trying to upsell. I will support LSoS always 💜.

Jackelyn Belcher

My absolute favorite children's book shop. They carry a finely curated selection- it's just a delight to browse the shelves. I also love their recommendations as well. On several occasions I've placed an order over the phone for curbside pick up and my children have loved the books they picked for us!

Sandra Olsen

Great selection of books for kids and adults. Not a warehouse sized space - small enough that you can let your kids explore and big enough for a broad range of thoughtfully chosen books. Good for toddlers up to adults. Has a big upstairs birthday party space and a downstairs play room for small children. Very friendly staff. Very good place to shop for gifts because the staff has great ideas and is very happy to help.

Imran Sajid

My kids love coming here. Great book store that is an asset to the community. They do cool events and readings for kids which is great. A huge selection with a variety of books to choose from that you will definitely find something you will like and they are very reasonably priced. They also do birthday parties which are a great switch up from what you normally see and very accomdating staff. A cool little play room for kids. They also have great and unique cards for birthdays and much more. Would highly recommend this place

Cristina De Zulueta

Excellent bookstore. Mostly filled with children's books, it also has a small adult section with novels, poetry, and lifestyle books. If you are looking for an original gift, go here! The staff is also very helpful, and give good recommendation. I recently bought a coffee-table style cooking book and when I mentioned it was for a gift, they offered to order me a new one. The kids' books are amazing, with original titles but also the top reads.

Katie Patel

What an amazing local gem!! I visited today for the first time with my son and attended story time. It was fantastic, and the store itself is the best local bookstore I've seen. They have a big selection, it's well organized, and they have an adorable space for kids to play while parents browse and shop. The play space looks exactly like the room from Goodnight Moon. I'm already trying to figure out when I can go back kid-free to actually shop!

Anne Marie Maltbie

They have a great selection of books for kids and adults. They have the best kid section!

Sydney Gleason

Love this book store! The story times are great. My toddler had been going since he was 6 months old and never gets bored. The story time for little kids has a great mix of songs, stories, and interactive activities !

Jessica Murdock

This little bookshop has provided us with so much joy over the years! We love walking down there and spending time browsing and playing and can’t wait to do it again when it’s safe to do so. We love their selection of kids and adults books!

Ashley “AFaith” H.

ADORABLE PLACE! they created an actual Good Night Moon room!

Gigglybits

Absolutely amazing little bookstore with a stellar children's section.💯 …

Brittany H.

This little shop is adorable! I love that they have a section for adult books also, though it's not very extensive (I mean, it is a kids bookstore). There's also a Tiny Door here for those looking for them! Hands down favorite section, the Harry Potter themed platform. I'm still a kid, right?

Graham Rowland

Wonderful little book shop. We visited for a book signing, and it was great. A few people got upset because they didn't read the instructions regarding the signing times etc. but the staff, and the manager in particular, were fantastic about keeping everything organized and flowing. And the manager was admirable when kept his cool with rude folks. The shop is quaint, but has a great selection.

Anita Ellington

Hands down the best staff around! There is no book that can't find and have enriched my son's collection more than any chain store could. You have to go explore with your little ones.

Bjorn G

This fun little store expanded into another space a few years ago, so it is much larger than the original footprint. They are very kid friendly, and are great for helping with age-appropriate suggestions for any kids. They have an event space which before the pandemic was frequently used for public events, and was available for birthdays or other parties. Not sure if that's back in service in 2022.

Al Natanagara

First off: It does not close at 4:00. I'm told by the staff that they've tried to change that listing without success. Little Shop makes Decatur a better city. The selection is excellent, and the service is better than excellent. If they don't have a book on the shelves, they'll order it for you. Little Shop does the book fairs for local public schools, and they do a fantastic job. They're involved in many community-related programs. The store itself is inviting. It's bright and cheery, with lots of places to sit and read. There are even two clean bathrooms. Every town needs a store like this.

Laura Wingfield

Excellent gift shop for children of all ages and even for adults. They even gift wrap your packages perfectly and anyone who gets a gift card or gift from the store instantly smiles if they already know about the place! Also a wonderful reading area designed to look like the room in Goodnight Moon and a few other spots to sit and read.

STEPHEN SHERRILL

Fantastic local book shop! They helped me out with some gift logistics on the fly as my GF was driving to the store to pick up some stuff she had ordered. They were able to drop my gift in with her order and were nothing but helpful and friendly all throughout. I cannot recommend these guys enough!

Amanda Kandasumbu

Little Shop of Stories was an amazing book store located near the Fernbank Museum. I had the pleasure of celebrating a friend's Harry Potter themed graduation here. They have a Platform 9 and 3/4 tucked away for events, children's reading times and more. The customer service was amazing. Plus, the variety of genres they had available was great for what appeared to be a small nook. It's much bigger than it seems! I would definitely recommend Little Shop of Stories to any body interested in a bit of book discovery!

Eston Melton

We love this store! Incredibly helpful and knowledgeable staff, tremendous distractions for kids, good grown-up selections, and all-around one if the community's shining stars. I'm particularly impressed by the variety of authors who come by and by the store's partnerships with other community groups. Oh! and it's a nice venue for kiddy birthday parties.

Antoinette Nelson

I’ve been taking my daughter to this bookstore since she learned to walk. She absolutely adores everything about this store from the “Goodnight Moon” themed playroom to the cost free and engaging story times. They have a great selection for children and adults too. This place is a gift to everyone in Atlanta and the surrounding areas.

Julie Dolan

This book store is fantastic and the owners and workers engaged and knowledgeable. I have had great success over the years asking for recommendations giving an age of child I'm buying for and a few ideas of interests and dislikes. When my child was itty bitty we could spend an hour purusing books and come out with a couple awesome ones. Parties here are fun, and their newsletters informing. I have not shopped much for myself, but they have more and more adult options that I will start spending more time with. LSoS is a gem that I want to support.

marymarquette

We had an amazing experience today at Little Shop of Stories! Our friends were in town from out of state but due to Covid safety we couldn’t browse inside. Instead, our shopkeeper, Justin, curated books for our kids’ age ranges, brought them outside to our own little table, THEN brought us a goodie bag with knick-knacks and stickers of some of our favorite book characters! WOW. ABOVE AND BEYOND! This little shop always exceed our expectations!!

Katie Kaplan

I came for the first time yesterday. This is a great bookstore and we were treated warmly by staff except for one male employee that made us feel unwelcome. My daughter is turning 5, and he kept making comments about how she was holding the stuffed animal I was going to buy for her for her birthday (“don’t hold by the tag.” 10 min later ...“Still holding by the tag”). I felt unwelcome and it was bizarre so we paid and left sooner than we’d intended. Honestly would have stayed and bought more stuff but felt hurried out.

Aidan Brack

A charming independent bookstore that recently expanded, allowing it to offer an even wider selection of children's books in a beautiful new children's area. My toddler loves the Platform 9 3/4 secret tunnel that runs from the children's area into a room with a train set. They regularly offer programming including author events and do an excellent job hosting these. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

Jared Jackson

This place is always cool. Love the illustrator drawings on the walls, cool penny floor! Books are great too 😜 …

Rebecca Drake

My favorite store in the world. It is my family's second home!

Saba Mahmood

The story time was really interactive and fun for my son. You get to meet other parents and their kids. Overall amazing place to shop story books. Didn't get the chance to look around the store but definitely would do it next time

Leigha Jonestock

Little Shop is the Goliath of little book stores. Their store has a fun, kid-friendly vibe and suggestions to find your perfect read, but their true strength is their literacy-based outreach. They host author events in store and in the community as well as community programs to promote reading for all ages. They also host book clubs and some of the most sought-after summer camps in Decatur. Come for a good book, leave knowing you've supported the book industry, local business, and literacy!

Marisol Anderson

My daughter and I had an amazing experience in this book store. The staff are all so happy and pleasant. The shop its self is beautifully design and unique. We thank you all for a wonderful experience!

IRHrok Hinds

One of my all time favorite book stores

Amanda Senentz

This was the first time we had visited and it is truly a gem. I love local book stores and this one went way above my expectations. The store is so whimsical and invites guests to explore every nook and cranny of the store. Kids are mesmerised by all the displays and books on their level. There is a separate room area where one of the walls is painted to resemble Platform 1 3/4 from Harry Potter. You can pass through the wall and end up in the room from Goodnight Moon. I honestly can't say enough about this shop, it's magical for any bookworms and even those who aren't. Apparently there is also an upstairs area that we didn't see due to a camp being held up there. What would be better than a book camp?? I wish we had those when I was growing up!!

Vanessa Whited

Little Shop of Stories has been my saving grace during the pandemic! They quickly adapted to serve their customers online and with pop ups. They are responsive, thoughtful with their recommendations, and overall just AMAZING!

Rachel Steinberg

This may be my favorite book store. It is cute with the room from Good Night Moon as well as Platform 9 3/4 (Harry Potter ) in back. They had great book recommendations on the shelves and fun books on display.

Jennifer Shares

My FAVORITE children's book store. This place has a great selection, lots of diversity in stories, writers and illustrators. And not just the same books you'll find at any store or b&n! Some of my best finds have come from here!

R W

This small local book store is the best place to buy books in metro Atlanta. They always have stocked shelves and great customer service. They are constantly amazing at finding new books that you will loved based off your previous favorites. They often setup or host events like having guest authors and have a variety of summer camps for the kids.

Alexis F.

Love this place for the people, decor, and events. It's the best book store I've ever been to! We've joined book clubs; attended book signings, and one of the On The Same Page events. They're fantastic!

Colton Spross

Even with the sales floor closed by the pandemic, the staff is very helpful with recommendations via email and phone. It still feels like the personalized local book store experience. Can’t wait until we can browse in-person again!

Dagmar Ebaugh

If you like bookstores, you'll love The Little Shop of Stories. It's a real community-building place with storytimes, author visits, book clubs, and summer camps. Also a great location to hold your child's birthday party.

Ryan Knight

This place is amazing. Had a great time taking my kids there. They have tons of book with reviews by the staff to help you find something you'll love. The kid area is a blast where kids can play with the train or you can read them a book. Highly recommend!

Amber Rowland

We came here for a book signing for Stacyplays (Stacy Hinojosa) and found the store and staff both to be exceptional! They worked hard to make the signing (which had a MASSIVE turnout) go smoothly by dividing fans into color waves. Unfortunately, some fans were upset waiting bc they hadn't bought tickets for the tickets event and would have to wait until the end or they didn't see the emails instructions, but the manager did an exceptional job trying to manage everything. I wish we didn't live 2.5 hours away, but if we're ever here again this bookstore will be one of our stops!

Mary Clouse

What a sweet place with a whimsical touch! Staff was very kind! Great variety of subjects and levels of reading.

Erin Roark

Best bookstore I've ever been to. The people there are friendly and take the time and brain space to remeber you once you come a few times. Cute and homey design. Good selection of books.

John Fox

Always a great experience and all of the people are super helpful!

Curtis Free

Little Shop is basically our second home! Great staff, great location, and great events. Check out Decatur's finest indie bookseller!

Charles Anderson

Great shop and the employees were very knowledgeable and helpful!

Maggie Deaton

Such an amazing selection of books! I especially love that they include lots of diverse children's books so kids can see themselves in stories and learn about different people.

Kristen Hatch

Totally charming. I believe it's primarily a children's bookstore, but there is a large adult section, too. Loved the ambiance, the decor, and the helpful staff. Everything a local bookstore should be!

Sujad Quinn

Wonderful selection, super friendly and comfortable environment. My little ones regularly grab a book and shirt in the couch to read, then pick their favorites. Staff is very knowledgeable.

Erin Brown

Really cute independent bookstore. Lots of fun things for kids to do and look at, and good reading options. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the prices seemed reasonable.

Tyler Robinson

Cute little shop in the downtown Decatur square; focus on childrens books and antiracism were notable

Will VanDuzer

Nice bookstore on the square. Great for kids. Small selection compared to the book giants (if they still exist) but great atmosphere and refined selection.

Noah Ginn

Fun and eclectic shop. I loved the positive vibes and philosophies presented by the titles and other items in stock. Ample children's section and high quality collection.

James Diedrick

Just a great book store--so well curated, and with well-chosen books for adults as well as children (Michelle Obama's memoir, Michael Pollan's latest, many others). Customer service is second to none, and gift wrapping is free. See example below--Bao Phi and Thi Bui's A Different Pond wrapped for my grandson's birthday.

Annie Archbold

The go to bookstore for kids. They have a small adult section but it is a kid's special place. They have author events as well as hosting birthday parties and story times. They are a Decatur anchor store!

Melanie Koerting

Little Shop of Stories is located on the square in Decatur. The staff here is knowledgeable and friendly. LSoS hosts authors quite regularly with panels and book signings and it is not uncommon to find signed treasures among their shelves.

Amy Kugali McWilliams

Marvelous bookstore! They are in the middle of expanding so it was under construction but they had such a great variety of children's books. My friend and I wandered around for at least 45 minutes looking at the new and classic books.

Jayanta Dey

Best book store for kids in the Atlanta area. Locally owned, with a very knowledgeable and friendly staff, and a very good collection of books. They also run several reading groups.

Charlie Dannelly II (CSD2)

Great experience! Beautiful bookstore.

Jordan Velten

A great local bookstore that's mainly geared towards children's books. However, it has a really great selection of YA and adult books too. They do a lot of events for kids.

Ruth Ann Steinbrecher

Warm, friendly staff and a good selection. The staff are happy to either help you or let you browse in peace. Ordered books come very quickly.

Rock L.

This is a very good place to buy books. They have a well-curated selection. When I have extra money I just go in and buy a random book based on the title and/or cover and have only been disappointed once.

Josef Fischer

Great birthday party and book signing options, our 3 year old always asks us to stop in when we go to the square. Staff are very knowledgeable and helpful in offering reading suggestions.

Joel Webber

Great selection, helpful and knowledgeable staff, and storytime is a godsend for those of us with little ones. They're also great about bringing authors in for book signings and to meet the kids.

Chel Thestrange

Cute. Selection is small but varied.

Kate Royster

Amazing selection of children’s books and so visually appealing. It feels like you’re walking into a fairytale

I've literally never had a bad experience here. Everyone's always so welcoming and knowledgeable. They do great special events like read-alouds with authors and special themed days. Really special. I love it here.

Justin Matthews

Lovely place to buy a book. Friendly staff. I especially liked the "Staff Picks" where a staff member writes a quick note of why they liked a certain book.

Sandy Perez-Ochoa

Love, love, love this book store! We've been going for years and I've never been disappointed! Great selections and events!

This isn't just a local treasure. It's a regional and national treasure. So much more than a bookstore. It's a Decatur institution, and I'm happy to see them expanding their current location!

Great bookstore but needs a manga collection, there's not one in Decatur besides HPB

Yasmeen Qadimasil
