Once Upon a Time
There was a bookshop in the beautiful Market Town of Pickering, North Yorkshire…
Nestled in the heart of the Market Place, the old building with an upstairs space framed by original oak beams is the perfect place to discover your next read in a calm and welcoming environment.
Community is important to us, and we host regular events in the warm and atmospheric upstairs space. Having a positive impact both locally and globally —in our small way — is at the heart of what we do!

Haunting, nostalgic and sensitive, each song transports you into lives imagined from an object carried through time between the pages of a book. The show will include favourites from the album alongside new songs and solo performances for an evening not to be missed!

Ellie Levenson
Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, PickeringJoin us for a gripping and heart wrenching locked room drama from Ellie Levenson, who is certainly a debut novelist to watch! Sarah Jessica Parker “adored Room 706” and said of the novel that it is “as tender as it is surprising… a gripping interrogation of womanhood” (which is) “poignant, immersive, and utterly human”. Room 706 is a thrilling, thought provoking and deeply compelling story which will make a fantastic book club choice, so we’re very excited to chat with Ellie about it at this event!

Katie Carr
Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, PickeringJoin us for a captivating evening in conversation with Katie Carr, when she will discuss her forthcoming memoir Thundery at Times. Katie’s story is beautifully realised on the page — she has created a hopeful and honest, yet uplifting account, of her attempt to finish the challenge left to her by her brother Toby, whose story is so poignantly told in her first book Moderate Becoming Good Later.

Midsummer Festival: Wyl Menmuir
Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, PickeringFrom the lonely heights of mountains to the womblike depths of caves, from sacred monuments and pilgrimage sites, to art made by our Neolithic ancestors and today's sculptors, stone has always drawn us in. In The Spirit of Stone, Wyl Menmuir brings together social history, folklore and encounters with the landscapes to explore the many ways in which rock and earth ground us and form part of our identities, histories and futures.
