I purchased 2 books - a copy of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas for the Brewster Library and a copy of Dasher to raffle off to a lucky Brewster student. All week, students could fill out raffle tickets if they wished. One was a chance to be the first person to check out 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. The second ticket was a chance to win the copy of Dasher. We announced the winners at assembly at the end of the day on Friday and boy were there some big smiles! I love giving books to kids!
Matt Tavares was a delight on a snowy Sunday in December! After visiting Byrd's Books in Bethel the day before, Tavares came to Turning the Page bookshop in Monroe to share his latest book - 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. Tavares has also created favorites Lulu and Red as well as Dasher. Tavares read Dasher aloud and then showed the audience how he draws those amazing cardinals and the details that surround them. Following the presentation, books were signed. If you haven't seen his books before, please go and get them. They are spectacular!
