POULSBO — The latest string of new businesses in downtown Poulsbo have expressed the community’s priorities well: the children.
Just months after the Curious Child opened its doors on Front Street, Button Bright Books is opening its own.
Button-Bright Books is a used bookstore specializing in children’s literature.
From Harry Potter novelties, to shelves filled with classic literature for young minds, Button Bright aims to have something for every child.
The store will host a grand opening event on Oct. 23, from 4-7 p.m.
A ribbon-cutting will be held at 5:15 p.m., with special guest Poulsbo Mayor Becky Erickson.
The shop will have refreshments on hand, themed appropriately for the Halloween season. Refreshments will be provided by the Sugar & Spice Tea Company just down the road.
Folk music will be provided by Hank & Claire.
In addition offering children’s books, owner Kim Doyle also has plans for a weekly storytime event. Each Saturday at 10:30 a.m., Doyle invites children ages 6 and older to come in for picture books.
The bookstore is located in downtown Poulsbo at 18850 Front St. NE, Suite B, and is open every day of the week except Tuesday and Thursday.
