Spiral Books is a small children’s bookstore on Sullivan Street in New York City. We celebrate work that is moving and funny, unusual and beautifully crafted. At the heart of the shop lies our belief that picture books are an awe-inspiring art form and that children deserve stories that bring them joy, fill them with wonder, and feed their vast imaginations.
Each book is hand-picked and loved dearly by owner Mallory Neidich, a former middle school English teacher and mom to two spirited little boys.

My Valley
At fifteen inches tall, Claude Ponti's My Valley is the tallest book we carry, and one of my absolute favorites. On its vast pages, we're introduced to the Twims — small, tree-dwelling creatures — and their entire, enchanted world of moody landscapes, sad giants, and flying buildings. Mythical, imaginative, and gorgeously illustrated.
