New Books and Hours during Winter Break


Hello All. During winter break we are open Monday through Friday 8 am to 5pm. But not this Friday, New Year's Day, because it is a holiday. We are putting some more new books out on the shelves:

Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution--and How It Can Renew America by Thomas L. Friedman lists at least eight different environmental problems we are facing in our world today and offers individual and international solutions to them.


Three Cups of Tea: One Man’s Mission to Promote Peace One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin is our book of the year this school year. We own a paperback copy and now we own a hardback copy too. It is not too late to read this book and experience the desire to help create more schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan.


Lastly, we have a book by the National Geographic called Book of Peoples of the World: a Guide to Cultures which describes a large variety of different countries and cultures with descriptions and beautiful photographs. A great book to read straight through or to use as a reference for a particular culture.
