Ink-a-Dink Children's Bookstore and Boutique

Ink-a-Dink is more than a bookstore—it’s a curated space for excellence in storytelling. We specialize in exceptional children’s literature, middle grade and YA fiction, and adult-interest nonfiction that stays with you: poetry, stationery, paper craft, and timeless works that leave a mark.

Every recommendation is handpicked by Kim Childress, long-time Girls’ Life book reviewer, and the Ink-a-Dink team—curators, not just sellers—who seek out books that spark wonder, build resilience, and elevate the reader’s inner world.

We highlight stories that matter:

  • Diverse voices
  • Faith-rooted and values-driven titles
  • STEM and STEAM brilliance
  • Books that make kids think, laugh, and grow
  • For more choices, all ages and genres, and as an alternate to Amazon, explore the Ink-a-Dink Bookshop Storefront

As an official Indie Bookstore, proud member of the American Booksellers Association, and two-time James Patterson Holiday Bookstore Bonus Award recipient, we stand for something bigger: literature with purpose, stories with soul.
