Please join us throughout downtown Glen Ellyn on Saturday, June 23, 2012 for an entire day of author events and literary happenings for adults, kids and teens. Find more news and updates on the new BookFest website at www.BookFest.org.

    This is our third annual BookFest, sponsered jointly by the Glen Ellyn Public Library, The Bookstore, and Bundles of Books and promises to be an exciting event this year.

     We at The Bookstore are especially thrilled to be hosting Jim Aylesworth, well known children's author here at the store.  Jim was a primary teacher for more than 25 years and knows what children love.  His newest book Cock-A-Doddle-Doo, Creak, Pop-Pop, Moo is a rhyming treat not to be missed.  We hope you'll join us, here at The Bookstore, 475 N Main on Saturday, June 23, 2012, from 10:00 to 11:00 am.  There are no tickets required, but we would appreciate a call, (630) 469-2891 or an e-mail justbook475@yahoo.com if you  plan to join us.

We are also very excited about Marianne Malone's new book Stealing Magic.  Marianne was with us for our first BookFest with her first book Sixty-Eight Rooms.  Marianne will be at a luncheon at Glen Oak Restaurant.  This is a ticketed event so please go to www.bookfest.org for details.
