Welcome to The Shop Around the Corner
Here you’ll find a multitude of children’s books featured in the 1998 film You’ve Got Mail, which, if you’re unfamiliar, heavily features a children’s bookstore called The Shop Around the Corner. Nothing brings me joy quite like children’s literature and 90s nostalgia, so I have painstakingly studied the shelves featured in the film to bring this list to life. I hope that at least one book here unlocks a nostalgic memory for you, or at least conjures a smile of recognition.

Books for my kids
I don't have kids. Its a high possibility I will never have them, but will end up being the random aunt-uncle who lives overseas and sees my future nieces and nephews once every five years. But if I end up deciding to adopt a child or two with my partner, these are the books I'd want in their room to read to them.
