Beacon Hill Books & Cafe

A five-story wonderland — small trains running on the third floor, cozy house-like rooms packed with books. The kids' floor is themed around Paige the Squirrel, a bibliophile mascot with her own book; the "Ex Libris Sciuri" sign means "from the squirrel's library," and a tiny red door (by illustrator Brian Lies) is supposedly Paige's own. I bought two mini-prints from the Inciardi vending machine. Visited from Beacon Hill.
