New Books by Nebraska Authors & Self-Published Authors

Welcome to Susan’s!!  We invite you to come for books that might change your life, find award-winning toys, purchase beautiful vintage consignment gifts, select almost new children’s consignment clothing, and make friends.  Educational activities, crafts, science and building projects, and toys your kids will love to learn as they play.  Quality.  Educational.  And, of course, fun!

We welcome you to our used bookstore.  History, biographies, fiction, children, mysteries, westerns, cookbooks, sports, religious books, and more.  Everyone gets a free book every time you visit as our gift.  Books are donated by customers to help us have our store and to help us give books away in our local communities.   We desire to get books into as many homes throughout our area as possible.  We believe that a book given in the daytime may change a life when read at midnight.  

Have a beautiful day!  Life is so short…only one grain of sand can make it through the sand timer per moment.  Let’s make a conscious effort to notice each piece as it goes through.  Each moment.  Our gift.  Susan
