Greetings,
Bookseller Dora Wilkenfeld attended the National Book Awards and took our little orange Flip camera with her. You can view her video of the ceremony on our website. It's fun to watch. I especially like seeing the chat judge Marilyn Nelson has with the ebullient winner Mark Doty.Our annual Holiday Shopping Spree Day is this Wednesday, December 3, beginning at 8 am. All books (except course books and already discounted books) will be 20% Off. Come early. There's no limit to how many books you can purchase. Cheers!
