I am delighted a great store survives in Phoenix selling those flippy things with printing on them, plus those silver disks discharging music and movies.  ALso offered are video games, and a host of interesting trinkets for enquiring minds and not-quite-mainstream tastes.  \n\nI got a Christmas gift suggestion list for a herd of nephews.  Trying to stay local, we headed to Boookman's.  I found several of the requested items, plus a few more, very reasonably priced.  No batteries needed!\n\nThe best part was the help.  I was floated down, not inundated, by a stream of information about the likes of 6 - 10 year olds.  In any other setting I'd have called my deeply knowledgeable helper a reference librarian, but at Bookman's she was just one of the helpful staff.  \n\nI encourage you to try Bookman's first the next time you want to read something not requiring battery or outlet power.   The selection is vast, the prices good, the help unbeatable.
