Hicklebee's Museum
One of our goals at Hicklebee's is to bring books - the stories and characters -alive for kids. Employee Carol Schweppe and her artistic husband, Steve, set this in motion with the creation of the Hicklebee's Hall of Fame. You can find the acorn that fell on Chicken Little's head, the magic pebble Sylvester held, among many other wonderful things. Authors and illustrators have added to our artifacts. Hundreds of these are displayed all over the store.
When you come in, remember to take a look at our hallways, too. You'll find signatures and illustrations of the authors and illustrators who have visited us.
