I bought "Beyond Good and Evil" & "Thus Spake Zarathustra" from them and both books were in great condition. The prices were clearly stated on the back of the book and I never felt like I was getting ripped off. Staff was lovely and they've got a free records bin out front filled with some oldies. You should definitely check it out.

The owner Deb, and Vanessa who also works there are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The shop has a lot of charm with cozy chairs tucked into corners where you can sit and look through books. Their goal is to support other local small businesses by stocking their products. They display local artists works on the walls for sale as well. They carry a large assortment of adult and children's books, as well as gift items and puzzles. I try to make a point of stopping by at least once a week because there is always something new in the store. They are constantly rearranging displays and making room for new stock so you'll always find new things. If they don't have the book in stock, they are happy to try to order it for you. They schedule author book signing events, and other fun themed activities. They also have a Libro.fm link that you can purchase audiobooks from that helps support them and also other independent booksellers. Make it a point to stop by and visit this store. You won't be disappointed!

From Xmas to Mother's Day to Birthday gifts or something local flare, this is one of my go to shops. I never leave empty handed.

There was a young lady working at the shop and she was very welcoming and offered her assistance if needed. This is the place to buy children's gifts including toys, games, puzzles, and books. For adults, there are greeting cards, notebooks, and Michigan made items. Green Hippo was my favorite shop in this cute town and I highly recommend visiting if you are ever in downtown Orion Charter Township.

There is nothing that I did not like about this place. It was our first time in yet we were treated…read morelike regulars and frankly, felt like regulars the moment we were greeted. My wife and I each had a coffee and sandwich, both were exceptional. I'd dare to say that Elliot has perfected that Roast Beef Chimichurri - honestly, one of the best sandwiches that I've had in years. After we sat down to eat, Rachel came over for a chat. We could've hung out with her for hours, alas we weren't the only ones there and the everyone-is-a-regular vibe that Novel gives off sent Rachel over to some newly arrive customers to welcome them in. If you haven't been, go, but be sure to clear some time on your schedule as my wife and I found that we didn't want to leave and had a 2nd coffee while lounging with a book.

The roast beef chimichurri was okay, but it felt like it needed something to level out the heat of the chimichurri. I think it would be amazing with some roasted red pepper--slight heat to balance the spice. I know it would change the sandwich to something entirely different, but i think it would be amazing with coleslaw. Bookstore was fine, just a lot less books than I was hoping for. Looks like they keep a mix of more popular/new release titles, mixing in some older favorites. As a librarian I am always going to want more books, so take that with a grain of salt.

The store is small, but it is PACKED with games, cards and some old toys from the 80's on. It becomes a journey looking through the treasure trove of old and new items. For the newer items they are sold at or near major retail price. I have been in other smaller stores and they have to increase the prices heavily to make up for the obscene property taxes. I was happy to see the older things weren't ridiculously priced either. I left with two boxes of Pokemon cards, a set of original Spider-Man movie cards, a board game, a dragon pin, and a random Dungeons and Dragons themed bag that when I opened it, it contained a yellow and red bag, rainbow dice and a coin for Inspiration. It couldn't have summed up my trip more. :)

The space is small and cluttered but they are working on expanding to an upstairs area. Located on Van Dyke near Hall Road across from Trinity Lutheran church, there is plenty of parking in the back. The store personnel are pleasant and knowledgable. Do you have a man cave, or do you have that one special person that has everything, if so come and pay this store a visit as you are sure to find something to please the child in all of us...including 'real' children, lol.

He also collected Star Wars baseball cards and put the gum in a Tupperware juice container. My friend and I loved going in the basement and getting at the gum. I'd look around at all of the boxed toys and think it was a waste of money. The Detroit News even ran an article about him and his collection. Well, if you want any type of collectible, this is the shop. I'm sure my friend's dad is having the last laugh because one of the figures that I know he had sold at Toys R Us for $2.95 is now sold for $1500.
