    Check in here for a free color changing tote with your cruise coupons. Touristy, but fun store.

It was still early in the day, so there weren't too many patrons in the shop. The store was quite large for a small town, so we spent a good amount of time walking through the place and browsing the shelves. While I read mostly non-fiction, I was pleased to find a section of fiction books written by local authors. I purchased one that was autographed and plan to enjoy it when I get back home. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the store was well organized and clean, with the all the shelves clearly labeled. This was the best bookstore we visited during our Alaskan trip.

So, on our cruise in June we were so excited to stop in this shop! We stopped in and explored the store and I appreciation the selection available as well as the kids section being fully stocked. We were VERY excited that my son found an autographed book from his favorite author and it's been cherished since then. Loved the sections dedicated to Alaska and the history and loved the small gifts available for purchase as well. Friendly shopkeeper. Friendly atmosphere.
