Beagle and Wolf Books & Bindery

Beagle and Wolf Books & Bindery is a genuinely unique enterprise on Main Street in Park Rapids, combining a thoughtfully curated independent bookstore with a working bookbindery and paper arts studio. The store opened in 2012 and has become a destination for book lovers who appreciate the physical art of the book as much as its literary content. The literary fiction selection is curated with care, and the nature writing section reflects the spectacular lake country landscape that surrounds Park Rapids. Customers can watch books being hand-bound and restored, purchase handmade journals and paper goods, and take workshops in bookbinding and related crafts. The Minnesota authors section celebrates the state's literary talent, and the children's section nurtures the next generation of readers and makers. In summer, the store draws visitors from across the lake region, while in winter it serves as a warm cultural refuge for the year-round community.
