The Queen's Flowerpot;I loved this as a kiddie, but lost it, among others, in a house move or in a cull. Promising to read it to a pal, I researched the title, the author, the publisher- to no avail. It was published in 1968, the year I was born. This being my 50th birthday, I have been hunting hard. In Dartmouth, i was obliged to search all the bookshop Children sections around. Having explained to Lucy, she suggested some ways to search the worldwide lists. And i found this book, in Canada, the very same day. To say i am ecstatic is an understatement. Can not fathom why more booksellers haven't been as helpful.Never losing sight of it again!Mwah!

Great selection of books floor to ceiling, theres no corner of this shop left empty. Youll find books youve never dreamt existed.We had a lovely chat with the owner and will be sure to visit again when were next in Dartmouth

This is a wonderful, proper secondhand bookshop of the type you rarely find these days. I can spend a happy minute getting the book I want, or a happy hour finding a book I never knew existed.

This used to be my first port of call when visiting Dartmouth...but...what has happened ?Tired dog-eared books, with never any new stock. THEN I read the !! obvious "I am not buying any new books because I have no money!"A word to the wise...buy more books & you will have customers & customers bring money.How sad to see this once iconic bookshop fall into decline & sadly with no welcome for customers eager to buy.
