Some weeks it is hard for the rest of us at Lemuria to keep up with Emily and Maggie!

Emily has been bringing authors to area schools and the last couple of weeks was one of her busiest times yet.
She brought Loren Long (author/illustrator for the Otis books and illustrator for President Barack Obama’s book), Anna Dewdney (author/illustrator of the Llama Llama books), The Theodore Boone Bus (A actor group for John Grisham’s young adult series) and Ilsa J. Bick (author for a young adult book called Ashes) to the Jackson area.
Some of the schools she visited includes: St. Andrew’s Lower School, Power APAC, Madison Avenue Elementary, Pelahatchie Lower Elementary, First Presbyterian Day School, Madison Ridgeland Academy, Mannsdale Elementary, East Flora Elementary, Ridgeland High School.
Let Emily know if you are interested in an author visit to your school. E-mail her, stop by the store, or give her a call.

(Maggie had to enlist an assistant to help her: Anna at Millsaps Arts & Lecture Series for Brunson Green)
So while Emily was bringing something different to the school kids, Maggie was doing her own thing.
Bookselling stops included: a packed house at Millsaps Arts & Lecture to listen to Bronson Green talk about the making of the movie, The Help; A social worker convention, Vision in Action; the Duncan Gray Center; the Jackson Touchdown Club for Swing Your Sword by Mike Leach.
Today Maggie is selling books at Jackson’s Friends of the Library as they start a new membership drive. Tomorrow, she’ll start a new relationship with Millsaps Friday Forum.
If you are interested in having Maggie sell books at a special event or group meeting, let her know! Email Maggie, stop by the store, or give her a call.
