Wild Rumpus Books for Young Readers 2720 West 43rd Street, Minneapolis, MN 55410

"My kids and I absolutely fell in love with this place! It’s so whimsical and cozy. The staff there were incredibly friendly and helpful. One person was making their buttons at the counter and they were so kind and happy to show my son how it works, and another was quick to help us and knew immediately where the book my son was looking for would be. We could have stayed all day! We are already looking forward to going back."

"Definitely stop when in Minneapolis. I’ve know about this quaint little children’s bookstore for over 25 years. Just stopped for the first time. Why did I never stop before!!! Books, vibes, cats, birds and chinchillas! Awesome!"

"Most magical bookstore ever!! Will always have a special place in my heart. So whimsical and endless fun things to find. So cozy and welcoming. Very thoughtfully stocked with eager to help employees. You're never too old to enjoy a picture book!"

"Great bookstore. It's got a flavor and vibe for just about every age group. They've got live animals, books, toys, chairs and couches, and the atmosphere is great. Fantastic staff. Parking can get a bit dicey because of how busy that area gets and the store is a little on the tiny side but customers are empathetic and you make it work getting around in the bookstore. Lastly, prices are competitive with other bookstores and places like Target and Walmart if not more so. Highly recommend."

"Delightful, whimsical, thoughtfully stocked independent bookstore. Big fan of the year round spooky section and large multilingual section. Get books about little ghosties for the little ones in your life. Visited on independent bookstore day and purchased a few books for my niece. Also grabbed an advance reader copy of a book for myself (free) which was an exciting bonus. Primarily a bookstore for younger readers but adults will enjoy a walk through this shop too!"
