About Me

Welcome to I Love Mini Books! Thanks for visiting my store!

I’ve been a lifelong lover of books. In 1964, I was given a heart-shaped box filled with miniature books as a graduation gift and my new passion began. I made my first purchases from Dawson’s Book Shop where Glen Dawson provided much information and advice, including information about the newly-formed Miniature Book Society. 

I first became a member of the Miniature Book Society in 1983 and have been a member for many years. I attended my first MBS Conclave in 1992 and was elected a Member at Large of the Governing Board in 2012. My miniature book collection numbers almost 1500 books and centers on Pickering, St. Onge and Weber publications.  My collection has been displayed twice at local libraries. 

Since my retirement in 2002, I’ve had more time to devote to my collection and enjoy both research on and the search for miniature books.
