Going Barefoot with Stallholder Richele Barburina
Stallholding fits in beautifully with Barburina's mothering and homeschooling of her two boys...'Because the founders of Barefoot began their business while working at home with their own children, they are incredibly insightful and supportive'
Eco-Libris is collaborating with Barefoot Stallholders to provide their customers with the opportunity to plant a tree for every Barefoot book they buy.

A bookseller stars in her own fairytale
In an era when conventional wisdom in publishing holds that tots want nothing more than Disney, and that independent bookstores are being vanquished by the big, bad book chains, Nancy Traversy has so far been victorious.
Urban Baby helped spread the word about Barefoot in NYC!
Elizabeth Kennedy wrote an article on Tales from Old Ireland

" Living barefoot: Barefoot Books Cofounder Nancy Traversy pairs vivid art with high-quality multicultural children’s stories from the Nile to the Amazon, Shakespeare to mythology."
