Three Stories Bookstore and More — Local services in Lemont Township

We have always loved Three Stories Books. Ever since it first opened, it has been a family favorite. My kids LOVE sitting in the little nook and getting new books, playing games, the special events, and more. Since Carla has become owner, we are at the bookstore weekly for the Thursday craft days.

We’ve always loved Three Stories, but having my daughter’s 4th birthday there exceeded my expectations and I can not believe what an amazing experience Carla created!! She took her Swiftie theme and had everything I could have wanted and then did more. The kids made friendship brackets, colored, birthday girl quiz, a scavenger hunt, besides just enjoying being in a bookstore. Additionally we added face painting and it was a huge hit and every kids got their own special look.
