About me:
Established in 1990, Fireside Books & Gifts is an independent general bookstore located in the foothills of western North Carolina, serving Rutherford and surrounding counties. Our rustic A-frame building with a cheerful fireplace provides a warm, inviting atmosphere for readers of all ages. We are currently located in Forest City at the Tri-City Mall beside the Cinema.

Who are we?
Fireside Books and Gifts has proudly served Rutherford county for nearly two decades. When the business sold to two local sisters a little over one year ago - not a lot changed immediately other than an increase in gift items for customers to choose from. We are now in the process of relocating our business into the downtown area ~ where with at least double the space, we can offer the community many more events, workshops and programs for children. Hopefully we will be at that location this time next year! In the meantime, we developed an ecommerce site so customers have the choice of shopping online at their leisure or stopping in and allowing our wonderful staff to assist in finding that perfect book or gift they’re looking for. Special orders for books are still taken at no additional cost ~ just give us a call or email your request to orders@firesidebooksandgifts.com.
In our Gift Loft, you’re sure to find unique items you won't find elsewhere. From collectibles and heart-warming keepsakes, to fun and humorous gifts, Fireside has something for all kinds of special occasions. We regularly offer special events to the community ~ and they are usually free to the public. Sign up today for our complimentary reminder service and you'll never miss the chance to meet successful authors or attend one of our numerous events. You can also visit www.rutherfordevents.com to find out other local happenings in our area!

Specializing in Babies, Toddlers, and Preschoolers

This slide is a scan of a normal child’s brain. As you can see, at birth there are few cell connections, but at 6 months, there are quite a lot, and by age 2, there are considerably more. Imagine this. By the age of three, his brain has formed approximately 1000 trillion brain cell connections. Why is this important? The answer is that these connections are wiring your child’s brain. The real question is: What type of connections are being wired? Most of the information out there emphasizes learning by memorizing words and simple phrases. That can lead to dead ends and that is why sooner or later a lot of children hit a wall in their learning. What is needed is learning that leads to thinking, problem-solving; connections that a baby can build upon and create highways of learning! This has to be done with the right activities at the right time. We can provide the research in easy to follow materials with a lot of images without breaking your wallet or tricking you so you will buy more from us later. We cover pregnancy plus the first 2 years!  We know you want what is best for your baby and that is why we want to help you during this window of opportunity that will not repeat for your child. The research says the earlier you start the better! You created your baby and you can help wire their brain so it is wired for successful learning moving forward.  Please view 4 min baby brain video at www.inventivemindsgroup.com
