Greetings, Readers!
Oh, have we ever got some summer fun for you! All kinds
of great things are afoot these days, and we're all very excited about them!
I hope you enjoy this latest missive as much as I have, there's certainly
some good stuff in here!
Booksigning, Saturday, June 24th! Joanna Cohan Scherer
will be at Book People of Moscow signing copies of her book on Benedicte
Wrensted, A Danish Photographer of Idaho Indians. Over 10 years in the
making, this book is far and away the most comprehensive ever compiled on
the work of Wrensted, an undeservedly obscure Danish woman now destined for
greatness thanks to Scherer's excellent and comprehensive research. See what
it's all about, Readers, this upcoming Saturday from 10:00am until 12:00
noon. We've got books in stock for you to check out. You won't be sorry!
Also this weekend - Intuitive Arts Moscow! Featuring
Holistic Healers, Intuitive Readers, and wellness- and spirit based
products! Friday the 23rd from 12:00-8:00pm, and Saturday the 24th from
10:00am - 7:00pm. Admission is free! The event is located at Orchard Studio.
For more information, check out

This Wednesday, June 28th, is the official Book People of
Moscow showing of Wallace and Gromit - Curse of the Were-Rabbit at the
Kenworthy! The showing is at 7:00pm, and is FREE to people who carry a page
from this newsletter! Alternately, you can stop by and pick up a stamped
classic Book People postcard, and that will serve as your ticket! We're
hoping that you all will join us for some good times!
Remember, Readers, there is a Farm Fair at MaryJanesFarm!
This event takes place July 1 and 2, from 10:00am - 4:00pm. The event will
include, among other things, Antiques, Farm Collectibles, Live Music, Yummy
Food, and of course Fun & Games. If you've got someone who needs to be
convinced that the Farm Fair is a good place to be, you could try persuading
them with some Magnetic Farmgirl Wisdom, now in stock at Book People! We
realize that not everybody is lucky enough to be or have a farm girl handy,
so we have the next best thing - MaryJane's Magnetic Wisdom, featuring a
small booklet and fourteen Wisdom magnets with a handy stand! A perfect gift
for any occasion.
Also, the Palouse Folklore Society is having a benefit
concert on July 1st at 7:00pm. The concert will be "Out Beyond Ideas", put
on by David Wilcox and Nance Pettit. Tickets are a steal, a mere $12, and
the local proceeds will benefit the Compassionate Communication Network of
the Palouse.
Just a reminder for you all, Rendezvous in the Park is
coming to town next month! Book People is selling Rendezvous Buttons for the
low low price of $32, which will get you in to all four shows! Also, you can
get tickets online at the Rendezvous website at www.moscowmusic.com.
Thursday, July 20th is World Beat Rock, then Friday is Blues Night, Saturday
is Latin Groove, and Sunday is Classical Afternoon. The aforementioned
website also features a detailed breakdown of the excellent bands playing
each night - check it out!
Julie Monroe will be at Book People July 22nd between the
hours of 10:00am and noon. She will be signing copies of her book, Images of
America - Latah County, which contains over 200 stunning black-and-white
pictures of local history! You can stop by Book People today for your copy!
Finally, Readers, a heads up - Paula Coomer will be in
Book People Saturday, August 23rd, at noon sharp! She will be reading and
signing her books of short stories and poetry. We will have a little more
information for you as the event nears, of course. But we hope you'll mark
the date on your calendars, and set it aside for what promises to be a fun
time!
That's all for now, Readers! A good bit of news if I
don't say so myself. Stay tuned, though - next week, in addition to our
regular fare, we promise some advice on reading by Nancy Pearl!
