Our New Website

Dear Friends of Birchbark Books, Casual Acquaintances, and New comers --

I am so glad to welcome you to our new online bookstore and website. Nathan Pederson designed the website to reflect the store. As you browse our virtual world, we hope that it gives you the feeling of being right here, in Minneapolis, at our actual place. Way back in the beginning of the store, one of our staff members noticed a woman sitting in one of our restuffed and reclaimed chairs, gazing up at the high old ceiling, listening to comforting Native music, (probably Joanne Shenandoah's Matriarch), and just . . . dreaming. Or was she having some sort of minor stroke? After a while, our staff member approached the woman tentatively and asked, "can I help you find something?"

"I've found it," said the woman, and continued sitting right there.

And now you've found us.Miigwech. We will continue to add new details, photographs, stories, and of course new titles. I will add to this blog whenever the moment is right.

Yours from the little bookstore with the big outlook, Louise
