Flashlight Books is an independent bookstore dedicated to promoting a sustained love of reading in children - particularly in their teen and pre-teen years, when they most need the messages of empathy and the diverse viewpoints that books provide. We are a space that is community-focused and celebrates curiosity, passion, and learning.
In addition to being a store for books, we will host events, create a tutoring space, and run programs for kids and teens. Flashlight Books aims to be a place where families feel welcomed, kids feel safe, and young adults feel supported. When first we discussed what we wanted to call our store, we hit upon an image (and a shared experience): a girl in her pajamas, covers pulled up over her head, flashlight lit as she reads late into the night.

Report
The checkout and payment process here is separate from the one we use for books. We'd love to be able to add books & gifts to one cart, but the pleasing graphics and flexibility of our gift shop is a worthy trade-off to our way of thinking. We appreciate your patience & flexibility using this site and hope you enjoy shopping our Flashlight gifts!
