OUR TEAM

Benjamin’s Books Inc. is a children’s bookstore located in the heart of the Kennebecasis Valley at 1 Gondola Point Road, Suite 1. The shop is owned by Mary Ann and James Gallagher and named after two of the couple’s nephews: Benjamin MacGillivray and Benjamin Black. After years of tossing the idea around, the time seemed right to open the doors in November 1999. With the growing population of Rothesay, Quispamsis and the outlying areas, our research indicated that there was definitely a demand for high-quality books and educational toys.

Mary Ann and Jamie run the shop with support from their family members and valued staff. With Mary Ann at the helm and the help of Peggy Macnaughton, Janis Lenihan, Kathy Smith and Trish McNeill, our goal is to make your experience with us an enjoyable one.
