Buy local: A seaside bookshop's unique collection of children's books

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours,

Just 125 steps from the beach lies a quaint children’s bookshop with the friendliest volunteer staffer.

Jude Potts​ runs The Children’s Bookshop in Redcliffs – a seaside suburb on the eastern outskirts of Christchurch. The store has a long and proud history in the city, having first opened on Victoria St in 1976.

As part of Stuff’s Buy Local project, we are profiling six small Canterbury businesses that people may not already know about and that are in need of local support.
