Season's Readings, Continued: Need Last Minute Gifts?

 

Whether you are looking for fantastic picture books with beautiful illustrations, beginning chapter books or rich fantasy and specialty books for all ages, we are here to help you find the right match.

 

Ask any bookseller to assist you in picking out books for readers of all kinds: beginning, reluctant, voracious, or even educational materials to help give a boost in the New Year. 

 

Need a cook book or travel book for a host while you are traveling over the holiday? A plush toy or puppet to go along with a book for a younger reader? We've got you covered.  

 

We also have a large variety of boxed sets for those special holiday gifts, including series such as:

 

- Harry Potter

- Percy Jackson

- Divergent

- Hunger Games

- The Chronicles of Narnia

- Calvin & Hobbes

- Amulet

- The Far Side

- The Giver

- Warriors

- Maze Runner

- Hardy Boys

- Wonder

- How To Train Your Dragon

- Mary Poppins  

- and more! 

 

Thank You For Participating in the Gift of Reading!

 

Our overflowing barrels were picked up this week and your generous donations are on their way to children in need.

Please note that online, monetary donations are still being accepted through the end of 2014.

Thanks to our wonderful community for making this book drive such a success! (And a special thank-you to a last-minute anonymous donor who purchased $500 of books at our store to go directly into the barrels -- that really made everyone's day special!)
