It's been awhile since I've posted, and I apologize about that. We've been really busy at the store with some great events.
Tomie DePaola came to the store a few weeks ago and it was wonderful. What a charming man he is: very,very funny and just lovely with the kids and parents. Watching people meet him was like watching people meet a rock star, folks clutching their books exclaiming how much they love his books. If you came to the event and would like to see the photo album and download your photo, please email: flyingpigevents@gmail.com for the password. We have lots of signed stock available for the holidays.
The adult writer, Phoebe Damrosch, delighted us with tales from the four-star restaurant world. Her memoir, Service Included, is one of the staff's favorites this season. An excellent book for the foodie on your list.
Coming up this weekend, we've got Linda Urban reading from her debut novel for 9-13 year olds, A Crooked Kind of Perfect. I just heard from my distributor, who called to ask for signed copies if we've got any left because, "I'd like to have some first editions before the book wins the Newbery medal." So, come meet Linda and get excited about an excellent book. Linda will be joining us on Sunday the 2nd at 1pm.
Rusty DeWees, the Logger, will share his crazy world view with us on Thursday, the 6th at 7pm. His new book, Scrawlins, is a collection of humorous and thought-provoking essays.
For the littler ones, we've got two events the weekend of December 8th. On the 8th, Vermont illustrator Amy Huntington will join us for a talk, reading, and maybe some drawing! Her two new books are No Talking and Three Lessons for Astair the Bear.
On the 9th, Sarah Lamstein will share her lovely Hanukah book, Letter on the Wind, with us.
