Thanks to everyone who came for our celebration! We had a great time reading to children, and hope that they took something precious out of their time in the bookstore!
Bookstores hold a place in the hearts and times of our community. They are places to discover an author, a story, a life. Nothing affords the conversation and interaction among books and book lovers that a bookstore does. In the future, whether you download your story or pluck a volume off a shelf, a bookstore will be able to accommodate. But in order for bookstores to flourish and thrive, we must expose future generations to the unique pleasures they offer. On December 4th, 2010, take the child in your life to a bookstore. Watch his face light up as you give him free access, not just to a new book, but to tomorrow.
Please join us in this celebration! We will be offering a fantastic 20% discount off all of our children’s books, and will be featuring two book readings Saturday afternoon – Robn Desandres reading for ages 8 - 12 from 3 – 4 PM, and Phyliss Becker reading for ages 2 – 7 from 4 – 5 PM. It should be a wonderful event!
The store will not open until after sundown in observance of the Bahai holy day. We will be open by 7pm for our author appearance. Mary Volmer, author of Crown of Dust will be here tomorrow night, Friday, November 12th. Come hear!
JOIN US:
On Friday, November 12th and 7pm
Grass Valley native, Mary Volmer will be at the store to read from her first novel “Crown of Dust.”
Set in the California Gold Rush, this compelling and well-researched story tells of a young girl who successfully hides as a boy until she is the first to discover gold.
Hope to see you all there!
