Welcome to a world of wonder and whimsy

Welcome to The Bluebird Book Company! Here, you’ll find a delightful and curated collection of new and previously loved children's books, crafts that spark the imagination, whimsical play areas, and events tailored to littles and the grown-ups that love them! We believe in cherishing childhood, from everyday adventures to special celebrations. Thank you for making us a part of your story!

Story Time

The Playroom

Storybook Village

Join us for the sweetest Story Time each week on Tuesday at 10 am. At Story Time we enjoy a story together followed by a themed craft and snack. Story Time is a great way to meet other parents in the community or as a starting point to a morning exploring all that Wilmore has to offer!

In addition to our bookstore and retail space, you can also visit The Playroom. The Playroom is a separate space for kiddos to enjoy imaginative play in a special space made just for them! A playpass is only $5 per hour and also includes a craft of your choice from the craft area. There's so much to see and explore that you can easily spend a morning here.

The cutest place to celebrate your special little one! Our Storybook Village is the party room connected to the bookstore, and has room for 14 children. When you book a party in the Storybook Village, you'll have access to the bookstore and Playroom.

Celebration Encouraged.

We love a good party! Let us help you take the work out of party prep, so that you can enjoy the moment with your family. Choose from several themes and let us do the rest! Your Celebration Specialist will guide you through the party, decorate your space including all paper products and utensils, and manage the cleanup. Find out more by following the link to our Celebrations page.

Port Angeles. Puget Sound. Cold clear water and beautiful mossy trees. It’s been beautiful and a little chilly! We Kentuckians are not used to cool weather July temps, but I am not mad at about it.

Chicago layover means Garett’s and dinosaurs. 😍
