Tree House Books — Local services in Ashland

A amazing family owned bookstore. They have a wide variety of books at a reasonable price. I have bought several books from there in great edition. They also have a gathering for kids who meet up once a week there to encourage local kids to continue using writing as a art form. They made a board game that helps you write your own books within a certain amount of days. You shouldn't be surprised if you walk in there to see a bunch of adults and kids of all ages in costumes acting out the stories they have all collaborated in writing.

The owner, Jane is a sweet lady and clearly has a passion for books and children. They even sometimes allow the kids to volunteer at the store or work part time, and even the kids are polite and know what they are doing. The back room is small, but has a lot of character and friendly, inviting feel just like the rest of the store. However, the backroom is my favorite to go read. It's like a whimsical portal room and is often very quiet back there. If you still are into reading actual BOOKS instead of PDF's and willing to support small business, I highly recommend...

For these people, it really is about the kids. It is a wonderful atmosphere conductive to reading, learning and using the imagination. It is not unusual to walk in there and see everyone in costumes. Besides being THE best children's bookstores I have ever been in, they have activities, quests, and other challenges to keep kids interested in learning. Honestly, I wish I had had a place like this to go to when I was young. I might have turned out being a completely different person. A better one.

This place is an asset to the community, and the schools ought to be glad that they are there. They are making...

BEST SHOP EVER!!!!! I seriously can't say enough good things about this place. They are all about kids but have gifts for everyone. I have been very impressed recently that they've continued their masking policy even as the state lifted it because they want children (still unable to be vaccinated) to be safe in their store. Thank you to the wonderful staff...
