Tara and EmKay are joined by Peter Glassman, Founder and President of Books of Wonder in New York City, to discuss the day to day of owning and operating "New York City's oldest children's-only bookstore" since 1980! Peter shares how he fell in love with antique books, the art of preservation, bringing faithful reproductions of Baum's original 14 Oz books to the Books of Wonder shelves, favorite Ozzy panels held at the store, a "You've Got Mail" shout out, and so much more!
