There has been a bookshop in this location since 1815 en though at the start it wasn't as big as it is now.

Looks familiar?
Yes, this is the location of famous (one of my all-time favorites) movie.
Can you tell me what it is?
Here's another hint...
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
... now that's already a giveaway! :D

This is my grandson--he was given the opportunity to choose any book he wanted at our local small bookstore--Wild Geese Bookshop, Franklin, IN. He is a huge fan of stories, and of Star Wars, so his choice of a Pokemon guidebook was a surprise to me. Have to admit I know zero about Pokemon Go, but it was fun while they were visiting to watch him and his Mom chase creatures through several of our local parks.
Early morning, not even turned the bookshop lights on yet, gently waking the pages from their slumbers before opening up and holding Storytime

Earlier this year, I walked into the Brazen Head bookshop looking for a book which has been out of print since the 1960s, The Art of Coarse Sailing. The shop was stuffed with shelves sagging under the weight of words and stories, each crying out to be heard. Without knowing where to start my quest in such apparent confusion, I approached the proprietor who was looking at the screen of an old computer. I asked if he had a database of all the titles in the shop. He passed a withering look which made me feel quite the fool. No! What are you looking for? he asked. I told him my title and without disengaging his stare, said up the stairs, room on the left, third set of shelves, under nautical. Amazingly, as if guided by the force of all those titles, I went straight to it. I enjoyed the book, in fact it transported me back to my childhood on the Norfolk Broads with an amazing brightness and clarity. Some days later I felt compelled to return it for someone else to discover. I was greeted by an elderly lady in the shop. I asked after the gentleman who originally served me. She gave me a quizzical look and replied that only she worked there and that most of the books, just like mine, had a habit of returning. It was then I realised the distinction between fact and fiction can become blurred, especially in the company of such a wealth of old stories, all clamouring to be heard.
A nice eye-catching red awning on this back-street bookshop.
