The Kasuga Grocery Store book nook recreates a small Japanese corner shop on two floors, in dark wood under a tiled roof. An old pine grows along the front and reaches the upper story. Behind the paper window upstairs, a room stays lit above the shop.

It's a medium build, for people who like Japan and neighborhood shops. Build it alone or with someone, and give it to anyone who loves Japan.

Who is the Kasuga Grocery Store book nook made for?

This one is for people who love Japan, its back streets and its small shops.

It's a hands-on project that will keep you busy for a few hours, and at medium difficulty it works whether or not you've built one before. The build shares well between two people, one on each floor of the house.

Its dark wood and grey tile sit well on a light wood shelf, or on a bookcase already full of books.

Its LEDs also make it a small night light.

Kasuga Grocery Store Book Nook - product details

Book nook details

Two orange paper lanterns light the doorway. Out front, magazine and newspaper racks stand on the sidewalk, right next to a drinks machine.

Inside, the shelves are packed with colorful cartons and bottles. A wooden counter with drawers takes up the back of the shop, and a cat has settled on a chair.

A small bonsai sits near the door on its stand. A tall red sign juts out from the front, the way they do in Japanese shopping streets.

Can I get replacement pieces if something breaks or is missing?

If you have a missing or broken piece, you can contact us and we'll send you a replacement.

Is it too complicated for younger children to assemble?

The recommended age is simply a guideline, many children ages 6 to 8 have successfully built their book nooks and miniature dollhouses on their own, simply by following the instructions provided in the boxes. If your child is used to building with Legos, they'll manage without too much difficulty.

Our book nooks are made of wood, which is completely safe for children and adults. They are certified to safety standards and are free of high-concern chemicals.

Do I need additional tools to assemble my miniature book nook?

No, you have all the necessary tools to assemble your book nook without difficulty. However, batteries are not included due to customs and shipping reasons. Check the specifications section to see what batteries your book nook requires.
