The Squirrel & Acorn Bookshop — Local services in State College

I love this bookstore so much and try to order from here whenever possible. Squirrel and Acorn has a great environment, a thoughtfully curated selection of books (the children's section is chef's kiss), and a very kind owner (thanks for everything, Andrew!).

Even if they don't have the book you're looking for in stock, it's easy enough to go onto their website and special order it through them. Andrew even contacted me to make sure I had time to wait when a book I'd requested was backordered right before a holiday.

Support your local bookstore, and if you're an audiobook listener, select Squirrel and Acorn as your indie bookstore on Libro.FM. I am so grateful to have Squirrel and Acorn in...

A good friend of mine suggested I message the owner of this shop and inquire if they would be kind enough to include a few copies of my book in the store.

So I called and left a message , but again I was ignored with no response. A simple courteous acknowledgment of yes or no would have sufficed, but it seems they can’t be bothered.

I am grateful for the Squirrel & Acorn because I have been saying for years that State College, and the Centre Region more broadly, should have an independent bookstore that focuses on selling new books.

There is a robust children's book section and the shelving has an intuitive flow to the topics.

In addition to books, I was impressed by the Squirrel & Acorn's selection of fountain pens, ink, and pencils.

Well...
