Events In December
Saturday 12/7 from 12-3
Jon Land author of The Tenth Circle
Blaine McCracken races to stop terrorists from unleashing an ancient weapon of unimaginable power at the president's State of the Union speech.
"McCracken's back! And I couldn't be happier. Jon Land's The Tenth Circle is a knockout thriller blending history, cutting-edge science, and nonstop action. Ancient mysteries, ghost ships, and a modern threat like no other...this is a novel that
grips you by the throat and refuses to let go until the last page."
-James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Eye of God
Be the first to buy this newest book in Jon Land's Blaine McCraken series. This title doesn't release until late December, but Wakefield Books has exclusive copies here for Jon's appearance.
Saturday December 14th from 12-2 Christian McBurney Author of Kidnapping the Enemy
On December 13, 1776, a party of British dragoons surprised and captured at an isolated tavern in New Jersey Major General Charles Lee, second-in-command in the Continental Army, behind only George Washington. In order to have a British captive the same rank as Lee, Rhode Island's William Barton planned and executed the cross-bay capture of Major General Richard Prescott at the Overing house in Middletown, when Prescott commanded the British garrison occupying Newport and the rest of Aquidneck Island. Barton's raid was the outstanding special operation of the Revolutionary War, and still ranks as one of the greatest in American military history. But did the pride he earned from this mission ruin thirteen years of his life? Author Christian McBurney will be available to sell and sign his new book, Kidnapping the Enemy: the Special Operations to Capture Generals Charles Lee and Richard Prescott.

Decembers Childrens Character is Winnie the Pooh !
Winnie-the-Pooh is unarguably one of the most recognizable characters in children's literature, as are his friends: Christopher Robin, Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, and Owl. Generations of children have loved Winnie-the-Pooh, the Best Bear in All the World.
Did You Know ?
-Winnie the Pooh was brought to life on Christmas Eve in 1925 when the first Pooh story, written by AA Milne, was published in the London Evening News. The piece was based on a bedtime story read by AA Milne to his son, Christopher Robin.

-The characters in AA Milne's stories are based on toys once owned by his son. The original stuffed toys are now kept in New York Public Library.
-Eeyore was a Christmas present to Christopher Milne-the stuffed animal's neck had lost its stiffening over time taking on a morose appearance, which served as inspiration for AA Milne's character.
We've got all of the classic pooh stories to revisit with your young ones as well as the book of 10 new adventures, The Hundred Acre Wood. The first authorized sequel to A.A. Milne's classic stories.

The Elf on the Shelf:
The Elf on the Shelf is a special scout elf sent from the North Pole to help Santa Claus manage his naughty and nice lists. When a family adopts an elf and gives it a name, the elf receives its Christmas magic and can fly to the North Pole each night to tell Santa Claus about all of the day's adventures. Each morning, the elf returns to its family and perches in a different place to watch the fun. Children love to wake up and race around the house looking for their elf each morning.
This is a big seller every year and this year we have both boy, and girl elves!
