I've been giving this store my patronage for the past 12 years or so (since I was a whelp :) and this is THE best bookstore for anyone with a kid. (That's any age kid, by the way, not just below 15 or something.) The staff are VERY helpful and friendly, and every one of them is a real READER of bo...

Great little bookstore. Prices are high but it's worth supporting local businesses. They have an okay selection, mostly newer books which is good. They don't seem to carry many complete series' of books but that's understandable since they're small. Wide selection of genre considering the size, many...

Thank you for being an awesome store. You carry a great selection and a your staff fosters a very friendly environment. In an age in which bookstores are going the way of the buffalo, your shop is a beacon of stores from yesteryears. My whole family had a great time in your shop.

I was introduced to this store from one of my teachers when I was in school. This teacher was a rock star award winning designer, so I trusted his judgement and went to check the place out. WOW, what a store. If you come, make sure to dedicate a few hours to this place to really take your time to br...

Visitoing "The Oldest Children's Bookstore in the Nation" makes the drive to Montrose worth it in itself. Once Upon a Time is charming and filled with wonderful books.

The staff here are really nice & friendly, they let me practice my horrible Japanese with them. ;D Everything is pretty inexpensive, and the store is really neat and organized.

I asked them once if they had anything Sailor Moon and they helped me go through the racks and we found some Sailor Moon...

It's not often that I go to Montrose, but when I do, I always stop in this little bookstore. This bookstore is very community oriented. It hosts book clubs and there are LOTS of scheduled activities for children. Local authors are also featured here.

Adorable, independent children's bookstore. Relatively small size, but packed with a well-curated selection for all ages, from infant to early teens. Also some really good educational puzzles, unusual blocks (ie: featuring other languages or elements of the periodic table), and stuffed animals. Very...

The owner of Once Upon A Time is truly delightful and loves children's literature. I was very impressed at the LA Festival of Books with the number of authors she helped to pull into the event.

Thoughtful and fun selection - better than any chain or dot com could be! Worthy of your business!
