For all you book lovers, here is some good news! There is a new bookstore in downtown Portland, and it’s beautiful. Sherman’s Books and Stationery has come to town, just opening in the Old Port on Exchange Street. It’s a visual treat\u00a0inside – not only lots of attractive and appealing books, but lovely items to go with them. I was there on Earth Day (April 22) and a\u00a0lot of earthy and green items caught my eye. There is a huge children’s area. Many of the books are reasonably priced. <\/span><\/p>\n
