We’re excited to share that our children’s book Buffalo Sports Make Me Wanna Shout! is now available at several wonderful local shops across Western New York, from Williamsville to South Buffalo, with a few stops in between!
When we first started working on our children’s book, we hoped it would become something families could enjoy together. Seeing it on the shelves of local businesses that share our love for Buffalo, creativity, and community has been incredibly rewarding.
We wanted to take a moment to introduce you to the shops carrying our book and share a little about what makes each one special.
Alice, Ever After Books | Buffalo, NY
Located on Parkside Avenue, right across from the Buffalo Zoo, Alice, Ever After Books is a dream for anyone who loves children’s literature.
Founded in 2021 by Meg Howe, a former educator, this woman-owned bookstore is dedicated to inspiring a love of reading in children. From thoughtfully selected books and toys to story times and special events, it’s a wonderful place for families to explore.
As first-time children’s book authors, we’re especially excited to have our book in a store that celebrates children’s stories and the joy of reading.
Dog Ears Bookstore & Café | South Buffalo, NY
Dog Ears Bookstore & Café is much more than a neighborhood bookstore. It’s a nonprofit organization with a mission centered on literacy, education, and community.
Proceeds from the bookstore and café help support educational programs, including tutoring, after-school homework help, writing workshops, and literacy initiatives for children throughout Western New York.
We love that purchasing a book or grabbing a coffee here helps support something bigger. Since Buffalo Sports Make Me Wanna Shout! is all about passing stories and traditions on to the next generation, this partnership feels particularly meaningful.
If you’re in South Buffalo, stop in, grab a coffee, browse the shelves, and support a great cause.
Buffalo Gift Emporium | Williamsville & Tonawanda, NY
If you’re looking for Buffalo-themed gifts, Buffalo Gift Emporium is a great place to start!
With locations in Williamsville and Tonawanda, these shops are packed with hometown pride. They feature products from more than 100 Western New York small businesses, offering everything from Buffalo sports merchandise and apparel to locally made gifts and specialty foods.
We’re excited that our book is now part of their collection of Buffalo-inspired products.
Whether you’re shopping for a birthday, baby shower, holiday, or sending a little piece of home to someone who has moved away, there’s something for just about every Buffalo fan.
Cone Five Gallery | North Buffalo, NY
Cone Five Gallery on Hertel Avenue holds a special place in our hearts, and we’re grateful it was the first local shop to carry our book.
North Buffalo has always been meaningful to our family. Lindsey lived there as a baby, we later started our own family there, and she was even a member of Cone Five’s pottery studio before we had kids!
Established in 1996, Cone Five has been part of Buffalo’s creative community for decades. The gallery features beautiful handmade pottery, jewelry, glasswork, and unique artwork from talented artists.
As an artist and illustrator, Lindsey especially appreciates having our book surrounded by so many creative works.
If you haven’t visited Cone Five, it’s absolutely worth a stop the next time you’re exploring Hertel Avenue.
A Little Book, a Lot of Buffalo Love
Starting Shout Society has given us an even greater appreciation for the small businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs who make Western New York such a special place.
Each of these shops has its own story, personality, and connection to the community. We’re grateful they’ve made a little room on their shelves for ours.
If you’re looking for a copy of Buffalo Sports Make Me Wanna Shout!, we hope you’ll consider visiting one of these wonderful local businesses. You’ll find our book, discover some great gifts, and support the people and places that make Buffalo feel like home.
