This midtown Tucson shop, which opened less than a year ago, is dedicated solely to children's books.
Bill Finley Special to the Arizona Daily Star There are lots of warm and wonderful stories for the children of Arizona during the holidays. “A Very Hairy Christmas” by Susan Lowell, for one.“’Twas the Night Before Christmas in Arizona” by Jo Parry.The Littlest Bookshop on East Fifth Street near Rincon High School.
This one is wall-to-wall books for kids, with a handful of gift items that connect to books in the inventory. “We were in Southern California for a wedding,” Luna recalled, “and somebody suggested we check out The Frugal Frigate. We both love bookstores. Our daughter Inez was very young. So we went in … and loved it. I said this is where I want to be all the time. This is what I want my life to be, surrounded by books. And Jesse said, ‘Let’s start a bookstore.’”
Another update to the business plan: Luna and Adcock decided the inventory would go beyond picture books. “There definitely have been some moments when I thought, ‘What are we thinking?’” she said. “Then, someone will come in and tell us how grateful they are, how much the store means to their kids, and it’s very affirming. I guess the shiny newness hasn’t worn off yet. I’m still really excited about this.”
