"Practice Your Italian at the Toletta Bookshop This place was one of those shops you stumble upon, then wish you could spend the day. Not only did the Toletta have a really good selection of English books—from classics (including Thomas Mann's Death in Venice , of course) and recent novels to a healthy selection of children's titles to keep my companion happy—but the wealth of maps and guides made it feel like a one-stop shop for learning about Venice . Then there were the staff, who happily engaged with us in our broken Italian and helped us with our grammar. It's hard to feel encouraged to speak Italian in Venice, where the locals' English is so good, but this was a good place to start."

(Almost) every single book on Venice can be found here! General guides, walking, eating guides. Huge varied selection of books, new and second hand, with plenty of variety within the separate English, Spanish and French sections of the shop. Large selection also of children’s book, as well as some stationary and different , good-quality notebooks

A very large selection of books and more, including foreign language options. Kind and helpful staff can rapidly find books of interest to you. A small selection of pre owned books rounds out the options. A must visit for any reader.

We wanted a souvenir from Venzia for our 4-year-old son, something special and truly venecian... and we found it there! The bookshop is very nice, and we were wonderfully helped to choose a beautifull guide of the city for children. I would have bought all the shop! Arrivederci

There is a small but decent selection of books in English which saved me on my holiday after finishing the ones I brought too soon!

We found this little gem strolling through Venice on an early weekday morning. 2 cappuccinos and a cornetto was just what we needed to start our day (of course, no sitting fee and a clean bathroom helped too). Still rolling out pastries and sandwiches for the day, this was the perfect quiet little place for breakfast. I even stupidly left my phone here and was certain it would never be returned when I finally realized it. After racing/running back frantically 20 minutes later completely winded, the nice lady brought it out from behind the counter, and smiling. I can't thank her enough for her kindness.
