About powerHouse Arena Kids: The powerHouse Arena is known worldwide for having one of the best curated children's book sections in the United States. Many of our customers have told us that you can come to the powerHouse Arena blindfolded and any book you pick up will be wonderful. Not only have we pre-selected the best current children's books out of the enormous amount published every year, but we have also hunted down hard-to-find classics. Now, for the first time ever, you can go online to www.powerHouseArena.com/kids and get access to the same curated kids' section offered in our Brooklyn bookstore from the comfort of home. Stop browsing endlessly through unorganized, mass-market books on B&N and Amazon—we have done the work for you and selected only the very best books and gifts for you, your kids, and best friends. Join our powerHouse kids mailing list and get advance notices of exclusive kids' events and special sales!  |
