Welcome to the official site of Dog Ears Books, Northport, Michigan. See here for bookstore and other local events.

Dog Ears Books has been in business in northern Michigan since 1993. We sell new, used, and rare books. Selected titles are listed on this site. Many, many more are to be found in our downtown Northport bookshop. During current remodeling, we have remained on winter hours, Wednesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. We will add days and lengthen hours as spring progresses until, beginning with the Memorial Day weekend, we will be open seven days a week all summer long.

Bookstore Events:


Friday, June 14, 5-7 p.m. Mary Ann Samyn, will read at Dog Ears Books from My Life in Heaven, her fifth book of poetry, published by Oberlin College Press and winner of the 2012 FIELD prize.

Stay tuned for more summer events. We will be 20 years old in July! That’s 140 dog years!
