Fantastic collection of New Zealand children's books. The staff are extremely helpful in locating and ordering books that they do not have in stock including obscure ones.

An amazing little bookshop that carries a vast array of books there was so many to choose from, went there for a specific text that I needed for an online course I was currently doing and they had it in stock and at an affordable price, left very happy.

Without a doubt the best book shop in Dunedin. Such a large selection, and what they don't have the will try to get it in for you. They have an upstairs section with sale books as well when you're looking for a bargin. The staff here are very nice and will help you with anything you need. The children's section is lovely, colorful and well stocked.
