Carl may be 72 years old, but he's young at heart. Every night he goes door-to-door delivering books by hand to his loyal customers. He knows their every desire and preference, carefully selecting the perfect story for each person.
One evening, as he makes his rounds, nine-year-old Schascha appears. Loud and precocious, she insists on accompanying him — and even tries to teach him a thing or two about books.
When Carl's job at the bookstore is threatened, will the old man and the girl in the yellow raincoat be able to restore Carl's way of life, and return the joy of reading to his little European town?
The Door-to-Door Bookstore is a heart-warming tale of the value of friendship, the magic of reading, and the power of books to unite us all.
