Hi everyone this is Chelsea and I warmly welcome you to The Prancing Pony Books, a delightful and cozy bookish nook filled with curated blind dates with a book, handmade trinkets and wonderful treasures to be discovered.
As a mom of three littles it hasn't always been the easiest to get out and shop in person for books and enchanting gifts. With being online my hope is that this book shop can become a place of whimsy and wonder that you find comfort and joy in returning to again and again at any stage in life and find something to delight your heart in.
I am also so very excited to share with you that I have curated The Whimsy & Wonder Book Nook, a tiny magical filled bookish nook within the shop where you can discover a whimsical assortment of books, trinkets and curious treasures to spark imagination and joy for the little ones in your life!
Books have always served as such a comfort and escape to the fantastical for me and to be able to share this love for reading with you is truly a dream come true! Thank you so much for being here and supporting me, it truly means the world! Sending lots of magic, joy, wonder and magic to you (and of course all of the five star reads)!
“It's like the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad has happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing this shadow, even darkness must pass. A new day will come, and when the sun shines, it'll shine out the clearer. I know now folks in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding on to something. That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for.” - Samwise Gamgee, LOTR J.R. Tolkien
