A Decatur bookstore has been nominated for a national award for its work with young readers.

The Little Shop of Stories is among 13 nominees for the Women’s National Book Association’s Pannell Awards. The award recognizes retail bookstores that excel at inspiring young people to read.

This year’s awards, one to a general bookstore and one to a children’s bookstore, will be presented in May at BookExpoAmerica.
