Mari's Bookshelf...
Mari's Bookshelf is... JUST THAT! It's books that are written and co-designed by the bookstore owner and placed on an online platform. While specializing in children's books, there is a simple and yet profound mission: to make reading fun and exciting while sparking imagination and creativity through engaging stories.
The debut of Mari's first children's book, "Whatever I Want to Be" was placed on the shelf on June 2nd, 2023 and has sold out numerous times! Encouraging young readers to dream big and explore endless possibilities is a start that will continue to move forward stronger than ever!
As the bookshelf works on explanding its first collection, the owner invites you to join in her mission to reignite a love for reading. Together, let's inspire our youth to simply pick up a book and read.
