One shop, one town, one mailbox on West 3rd Avenue
Bookza is run by ANNA EVELYN HALE FUNY LLC, an Iowa company, from Indianola — twenty minutes south of Des Moines. We keep the list short on purpose: fiction, children's books, workbooks and coloring. The books themselves sit with US book distributors, who pick, pack and hand each order to USPS. Indianola is the office, the returns address, and where a person reads your email, Monday to Friday, Central time.
