"I've forgotten my glasses, can you read me the first chapter?"

"Did Beatrix Potter ever write a book about dinosaurs?"

"Excuse me... is this book edible?"

Filled with funny, quirky illustrations by the BAFTA Award-winning Brothers McLeod and featuring contributions from booksellers across the United States the UK, and Canada, Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores is a celebration of bookstores large and small, and of the brilliant booksellers who toil in those literary fields -- and most of all, the myriad of colorful characters who walk through the doors every day. This irresistible collection is proof positive that booksellers everywhere are heroes.
