Getting the family together when Mo Willems is in town and making them draw lunch bags so I don’t have to! #mowillems #dansantat #lisayee #cecilcastellucci #kimsonalbert #mattdiffee #bobboyle #leuyenpham #artists #authors #friends #rockstars (at The Front Yard) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9isTinD3ks/?igshid=922unjz2kh6w

You know, if the pigeon is credit worthy and can afford the car he can have it.

Overheard in the school parking lot this morning.

Omg. I love this book! The artwork, the message...the author! Mo Willems takes a different turn with his newest book, Because. Do yourself a favor and pick it up. Because. - - #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #teachingliteracy #reading #newbooks #picturebook #mowillems #because https://www.instagram.com/p/BuuVWXjBPwj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j7u573kvnpg7

WORD is 10! + Expanding

We’re celebrating a big anniversary, and expanding in Brooklyn!

So we’ve been in the bookstore business since 2001, but it wasn't until 2007 that we learned to spread (bookselling) love the Brooklyn way. We are so excited and proud to be celebrating 10 YEARS as Greenpoint's community bookstore. Thanks to those in our community here and IRL who’ve followed along on this wild ride, and cheers to so many more memories.

And! Just like an awkward pre-teen, we are growing and need more space. Coming this spring we will take over a storefront two doors down from our existing Brooklyn store and introduce WORD KIDS, a space dedicated solely to kids' books, toys, crafts, clothing, storytimes and other events, and lots of fun for Greenpoint's youth. Stay tuned for more!

Take a trip down memory lane with us. This one’s for the #books.

Our first author event, for Mo Willems’ KNUFFLE BUNNY.

WORD Bookstores founder Christine (thumbs up!) and her earliest original staff.

Breaking ground in our event space!

The earliest days in our Brooklyn store.

Thanks to our beloved Greenpoint community for welcoming us with open arms 10 years ago, and all those who have been with us since day one. Here’s to our next chapter of independent bookselling!
