Store Description

Mary's Book Shop was originally a bricks and mortar book shop that existed for over 35 years near the Wake Forest University campus in North Carolina. It specialized in unique children's books and some very special art books and various out of print editions. After closing the store in 2009 we started selling children's books and other rare items that we had held on to after closing on-line through Barnes and Noble and then decided to open this small "store" to the ABE world.
