Sleepy Dog Books FamilySleepy Dog Books was formed from the passion of two career educators to serve the community we call home, the place where we are raising our children, and the culture we want to support through literary offerings, community programs, and local events.
Growing up in Northern Michigan, I remember walking through downtown to shop at the local bookstore with my family. Our time at the bookstore was always more than shopping, it was a single location that would allow all of our interests to come together and brought about a feeling of connection and a sense of community. -Riley Literature, especially children's literature, has always been central in my life. Growing up in the Lansing area, I have always loved working with children and fostering their passions across learning through reading and literature. Books are like magic in the mind of a child, allowing them to experience, feel, and travel from the comfort of their own home. -Jenny These shared passions brought us together in life and in the formation of the idea that would become Sleepy Dog Books. A simple idea with endless possibilities, formed as a touchpoint for a community and as a catalyst for passion, thinking, and the collective good. Sleepy Dog Books was founded on the ideals of a family and community business and we will strive to serve each reader that enters through our doors. |
