Fair Isle seeks to inspire curiosity, connection and compassion through story. We believe stories can change the world, and in our shop we try to do that by offering fair trade gifts created by artisans around the globe who are working their way out of poverty. Each of their products has a story, and sharing those with our customers creates a connection to the producers. By sharing books that spark curiosity through their stories we also encourage connection with and compassion for others, especially those who are different from us.
Remember the comfort of a grown up reading you a story as a child? Whether your answer is yes or no, audio books will bring you that same sweet experience. Fiction or non fiction, adult or child, these audio books can accompany you on walks, drives, while doing the dishes or simply staring at the beautiful views of the island ...or your home place.
We love to hear from our customers, and will try to answer any inquiries within 48 hours.
