If you need books in French, this is the place to come. They have everything from the latest novels to classics to an extensive collection of children's literature. And the proprietess is wonderfully helpful and friendly. But make sure it is open when you plan to come because the hours of operation are somewhat limited.

A wonderful selection of French books, especially if you are looking for children and teenagers. I typically purchase from Bonjour Books DC online, but I went to the shop when passing through the area.

I live in Florida but had some of these books shipped as gifts and the experience was wonderful - Jennifer is so nice and even helped me pick some books out over the phone! Way better than Amazon, always shop local book stores if you can!
