“Independent bookstores matter because that’s where I discover great, new books through the help of amazing bookstores.”  John Green, author of young adult/teen novel Fault in Our Stars

At Storybook Cove, your independent children (and now also grownup) bookstore in the Hanover/Norwell and surrounding community since 1990, we take John Green’s statement to heart every day. We view our customers as our neighbors. For 25 years we have had a vested interest in knowing how to serve you by providing quality books and toys and knowledgeable service assisting you to choose books that will spark the imagination of your children for years to come.  Shopping at your local bookstore, and not remotely, ensures that your sales tax dollars remain in the community, you conserve energy and resources (less fuel, packaging), and you receive personal service from us as independent booksellers who are passionate about what we do.


Check out www.storybookcove.com for the extended store (and Hanover Mall) hours beginning November 27,  2015.  Storybook Cove has all of the latest children’s books such as Diary of a Wimpy Kid - Old School and many bestseller and Indie pick adult novels and books including those in the New England Independent Bookstores Holiday Catalog and the ABC Best Books for Young Readers Catalog which are on our webpage and available in the store.  Each catalog has great recommendations for books that will entertain, challenge, spark an interest, educate, guide, and inspire – all reasons books are so important!

In addition to our products and services, we will be sponsoring some events of interest to you and your children . . .

“Black Friday” Sale (November 27, 2015): In celebration of our 25th anniversary, from 4 am to 9 pm, we will be offering 25% OFF one – two – or three items!  The number of items will be determined by chance by you using our PLINKO board.

Small Business Saturday and Indies First (Saturday, November 28, 2015):  Now in its sixth year, Small Business Saturday serves as the ceremonial kickoff to the holiday shopping season for small businesses across the United States.  Indies First is a national campaign of activities and events in support of independent bookstores, first envisioned by author Sherman Alexie in 2013. It kicks off each November, on Small Business Saturday, when independent bookstores host authors as honorary booksellers throughout the day to help sell and sign books, share recommendations, give readings, and more.  At Storybook Cove, author Gina Tempesta (Boston’s Other Green Monster) will be joining us from 10 am to noon and author Karen Kelly Keifer (The Misfit Sock) will be joining us from noon to 2 pm. as honorary booksellers.  Come listen to their books, obtain a signed copy and let them help you pick out books for the loved ones in your lives.


Storybook Cove is located in the Walmart Wing of The Hanover Mall, 1775 Washington Street, Hanover, MA. You can also find them online at www.storybookcove.com, and follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
