Two Decades: It is still about the journey, not the destination. And with that, we marked our 20th anniversary. A big thank you to all who have been supporting us throughout. We have seen kids grow up and become their own people, with their own ideas. From new interns to customers and past employees who bring their children to the store now, a big thank you! We hope to grow with the same love and support to keep the magic of children’s books alive. Follow this link to trace Eureka’s history. |
