New & gently-used books for all ages
A new venture, owned and operated by Judith & Byron Staples
The Staples moved to 100 Mile House last summer from Chilliwack and opened the doors of Storytime on August 7th. The store is next to Fascination Street on Birch Avenue in 100 Mile House, "and we couldn't be happier about the location", says Judith, who will be store manager. "The shop is small but has a certain charm to it. We're right in the heart of downtown. And where better to have a family bookstore than next to a toys and games outlet? We complement one another and share many of the same customers."

In the store
In addition to a good selection of new books and book-related products for the whole family, customers can purchase "gently used" books, many with trading credit so they can be returned for a discount on the next used-book purchase. The store also carries selected Watkins Products, which the Staples have been selling for the past eight years; and quality gift items by Country Artists (Lowery's of London) and Screenplay Designs. Special Ordering: our computer can search by title, author, subject, keywords or ISBN number, to find almost any book in print. The Second Story

Judith is already known to many residents from her work last winter on the CFEC Homelessness Project and her current part-time position of Community Literacy Coordinator. Byron has been hauling wood chips in the area for the past five years. An avid hobby woodworker, he built an attractive store counter and bookshelves using Cariboo "beetle wood" with the distinctive blue vein.
