A green-beige storefront bathed in warm late-afternoon light has three large windows, a bright yellow door, and a green awning that says "bookstore." A wooden bench sits in front, on the sidewalk, and red geraniums hang between two of the windows. Above a display of books in one window are the words "Bans Off Our Book." A line graph across the other two windows plots numbers that remain fairly steady between the years 2000 and 2020 but sharply rise from 223 in 2020 to 4240 in 2023.

Above a display of books, a bookshop window says "Get Your Mitts on a Good Book." The letters have snowflake cutouts and are surrounded by more snowflakes and two pairs of mittens.
