Writing journals, greeting cards, sage, natural handmade Shea butters, oils, jewelry, hair care products! No Floride toothpaste! Coffee mugs, apparel, bookbags, purses, bags galore! They even have poetry night, book clubs and so much more as they serve as a resource center to the community! Don't sleep on THE DOCK BOOKSHOP! JOIN Their Book club for specials! My daughters (all of us who have kids) need businesses like this in every community to instill knowledge and experiences they won't get else where! Go see for yourself and thank me later! Excellent parking!

Great and thoughtful selection of books for adults and children and for gifts. I found an illustrated book about Opal Lee's life and Juneteenth and a signed copy of her recent autobio!❤️ There are lots of small events held here so it is also a social center. They have a newsletter with local activities.

The blessing of the ancestors be upon these sista s. Donda and Donna are precious faithful examples of how black businesses can best serve. Let your endeavors long live many eons. They sponsor artists, writers, with wide open arms. Recently found many afro-centric books. But mostly an oasis to refresh my weary soul.
