Turtle Town Books & Gifts

Turtle Town is a truly unique stop in Nisswa. Not only do they offer thousands of books, games, gifts, and toys, their goal is to offer the highest level of knowledgeable, friendly, and personal service. To that end, owners Doug and Mary are often in the store to greet you when you come in. They are devoted to matching you with the great book, puzzle, game or gift that will provide hours of entertainment.

​

Because half of the store is devoted to children, they are a great destination for gift buying and vacationing visitors. They choose their games and toys carefully for quality and value, and their puzzle lines are the best. They feature story times in the summer that are guaranteed to create great memories. For more information on story times, check out their events.

They look forward to meeting you and sharing their passion with you and your family!

About Us

Scout & Morgan Books is located in Cambridge, Minnesota, approximately 50 miles north of Minneapolis/St Paul. We are located next to City Center Café, an independent coffee café and City Center Market, a natural foods co-op and deli. Our local farmer’s market can be found in our parking lot every Saturday morning during the growing season.

The bookstore is open 7 days a week: Monday-Saturday: 9:00 a.m. -6:00 p.m. & Sunday 10:00 a.m.- 5:00 p.m. We are closed on major holidays.

We stock over 25,000 used and out-of-print books along with new Minnesota and regional books, bestsellers, and quality children’s’ books. In addition, we offer unique cards and gifts that appeal to readers and bibliophiles. We can special order any book that is not currently on our shelves. New books arrive within 3 business days and used books generally within 7-10 business days. There are no shipping charges or additional fees for special orders.

We pay cash and offer trade credit for your quality books that are in Very Good or better condition. No appointment is necessary to sell your books, however, we do recommend that you call ahead to ensure the book buyer will be available. Call 763-689-2474 and ask if the book buyer is in during the time you would like to bring in your books. Please see our Sell Your Books page for more information.

We invite you to browse our books while enjoying a cup of coffee or tea from our neighbors City Center Café. We have a cozy fireplace, patio seating, and are dog friendly. We are a group of enthusiastic, experienced, and well-read booksellers and look forward to your visit.
