RED BALLOON

Because of our love of reading and fun, Red Balloon Bookshop is dedicated to serving our community with books, gifts, and events that inspire, inform and entertain, helping children of all ages-and adults!-live imaginative and rich lives... Red Balloon opened in 1984, just four doors down from its current location. By 1989, the bookstore needed more space and it's been in the grey house with the bears out front ever since. Holly Weinkauf has owned the store since 2011, when the original owners, Carol Erdahl and Michele Cromer-Poire, retired. Named after the film by Albert Lamorisse, Red Balloon Bookshop continues to be an imaginative and exciting place for kids and kids-at-heart. Come visit us!... Red Balloon Bookshop has been helping children, teens, and adults in the Twin Cities connect with great books and great authors for more than 39 years!
