Kara Fundraising Day & Author Event with Esther Ehrlich ("Nest") TODAY November 6

 

Kara is a nonprofit organization whose volunteers facilitate others' journeys during life-threatening illness and bereavement. 

 

Linden Tree will donate a portion of supporters' sales from 10AM to 8PM and will host Esther Ehrlich, author of Nest, on Thursday, November 6 starting at 6 PM.

 

Nest from Wendy Lamb Books, an imprint of Random House, is a heartfelt and unforgettable middle-grade novel about an irresistible girl and her family, tragic change, and the healing power of love and friendship.

 

Please tell a bookseller when checking out for all your purchases that day that you are a Kara supporter and please join us for the special author event in the evening!

 

Author Brian Falkner with "Northwood"; "Maddy & the Tongue Taker" Saturday, November 8 at 4PM

 

Please join us in welcoming author Brian Falkner to present his latest books: Maddy West and the Tongue Taker and Northwood on Saturday, November 8 at 4 PM. 

 

He will present two middle grade titles: Maddy West and the Tongue Taker is a thrilling story with surprising twists and a strong female protagonist who can speak every language in the world while Northwood features witty dialogue and daring action! 

 

New Zealand author Brian Falkner's newest books from Capstone Press (he also writes Young Adult fiction titles including The Tomorrow Code and Brainjack) are perfect for fantasy adventure readers ages 8-12. Fans of Roald Dahl style humor will particularly like these books.

 

RSVP by calling Linden Tree at (650) 949-3390.

Graphic Novel Author Ian Lendler Wednesday, November 12 at 4PM

 

Don't miss Ian Lendler presenting his hilarious graphic novel titled The Stratford Zoo Midnight Revue Presents: Shakespeare's Macbeth

The Stratford Zoo looks like a normal zoo... until the gates shut at night. That's when the animals come out of their cages to stage elaborate performances of Shakespeare's greatest works. 

 They might not be the most accomplished thespians, but they've got what counts - heart. (Also fangs, feathers, scales, and tails.) 

 With amazing illustrations by Zack Giallongo (Broxo, Ewoks- Shadows of Endor), this is a Macbeth that can be enjoyed by the whole flock, pack, or family. So take your seats and prepare for Shakespeare's greatest tragedy as you've never seen it- funny! And with tacos! 

Readers ages 7 to 10 and up are invited to join us and encouraged to RSVP for the event next Wednesday, November 12 at 4PM. Ian will be at area schools (Almond and Santa Rita) prior to visiting the store.
