Cetonia Weston-Roy is selling Black books and books featuring Black characters in Milwaukee, Wis., from her bookstore on wheels, a large tricycle, called Niche Book Bar, Fox6Now reported.
"I love how you can transport into a lot of different situations," she commented. "I saw a guy selling ice cream on a bike, so I was like, we can probably do that with a bookstore."
She added: "What I’m trying to do with Niche Book Bar is to bring varied Black literature into the forefront. Kids' books that are just about Black kids being kids."
Weston-Roy usually plans on being at Sherman Phoenix, a community and cultural center that houses many small businesses, on Saturday mornings and at Carver Park on Tuesday evenings. Other times she rides through neighborhoods "so people can see me." She hopes eventually to open a bricks-and-mortar store that in addition to books will sell coffee, tea, baked goods and wine.
