From 1994-1996, this was the world's smallest bookstore, measuring just 10x6ft (external measurements) and housing several hundred of the world's smallest books. The oversized books measured as much as 6 inches, while the smallest is less than .25" square. The building now serves as a garden shed and the remaining books are in my dining room.

A professional bookbinder since 1974, I created a number of novelty books for my tiny store, and I have added to the inventory over the years. These include:
Fifty Ways to Say .... How to say Thank You or I Love You in over 50 languages
Small Greetings - tiny accordian books in a pillow box with sentiments such as Forget me not, Thinking of you, Good luck. A delightful alternative to a card.
An Alphabet of Alphabets:
If I live long enough there will be 26 tiny books - one inch square - one for each letter of the alphabet. G, for example, describes in almost practical terms how to perform various operations on various types of glass
Golden Rules for Living
Detached Thoughts -which bring together quotations from great thinkers, linked by commentary from a contemporary student of great thinking: Literacy, Art or Education
