Barnes and Noble:

Barnes and Noble
By Hannah Bell
Is it really just books? Or is there more? What really cool things make up this store? What do you see when you walk through its doors? Come walk with me and I’ll give you the tour.
Soooooo… on that note, Barnes and Noble is divided into several different categories. I can’t cover them all in this summery, but I will name a few. Here are some of the categories the store has, the newsstand/periodicals, the cool kids section, books on everything you can think of or imagine, a café, the teen section, music, art, and comics.
It is more than just reading books, you can study, hang out, eat, drink coffee, research, listen to music, and the store even has Wi-Fi. Barnes and Noble has a wide selection of games also. Everything from puzzles to travel games is found here. Many different varieties’ of people come to Barnes and Noble, from small children to the elderly.
Remember the cool kids section I mentioned? It is as cool as I described it to be. My mom and I entered the kids section with awe of how it really draws kids there into reading books. It actually drew my mom into it too. She loves the books called Olivia, because it is my middle name, and because Olivia is this cute little pig. My mom became upset because she saw all these cute stuffed animals, but none of them were that cute little pig. So we began to search for Olivia, and of course I found it.
The music and DVD area is like this huge library of music. There is music from everything you can think of. There is everything from tribal music to Christian. I think that Barnes and Noble has one of those tribal cds, because all I heard throughout the store was that. It is very interesting music. We cannot forget the café, it is amazing. The café has everything from coffee to treats to eat. My mom and I got one of the brownies and it was delicious. The coffee is star bucks and a little high on the prices, but worth it all.
The magazine section is pretty cool and large for its size. There are magazines on everything you can think of. Yes all the magazines aren’t good; there are some pretty dirty magazines. There are though some cool ones too, like ladies home journal, ones on cooking, and sports. At Barnes and Noble there is a discount card program that you can use. If you are an everyday member you save everyday in the store and online. There is also a way to save by email offers, or you can enjoy their savings on their website.
Barnes and Noble is a really cool place to go! This was my first time ever going there, I did not know that there could be an escalator in a book store, it was so cool. The whole experience was awesome! If I could I would go there often, but since we live so far away, I can’t. Thanks Ms. Meloncon for this amazing adventure!
