High Five Books is an independent kids’ community bookstore in downtown Florence, Massachusetts. We opened in October 2019 at 29 N. Maple Street; we moved in July 2020 to 141 N. Main Street (yup, still right off the bike path). We’re your neighborhood go-to for graphic novels, middle-grade readers, and picture books, plus art kits + other creative supplies. We share our welcoming space with Art Always, an art school for children and adults. We offer story times, book and art events, author and illustrator experiences, and other family-based community programs around literacy and creativity. Also: Snacks! And, of course, high fives anytime.
