A few weeks ago I went to the opening of Owl Books, a new English language book shop close to Ny Ellebjerg station in Valby. The shop is beautiful and light so the books look like jewels on the shelves.

Owl Books sell, in the main, children’s books but there are a few adult books on the shelves. I loved the selection as there were a number of books I’d never seen before  and it was even better as I rarely get the chance to browse. Their prices are also reasonable even compared to online booksellers.

They also offer a mail order service and they are planning to launch some events and readings in the shop as time goes on. At the launch event there was a kids’ craft activity run by Three Little Stars Handmade (see their Facebook page here).

You can read all about them on their website and see more on Instagram.
