enjoy those long days, and all
the great outdoor activities
we look forward to each year.
In June we celebrate and honor
our Dads. We've got a great
collection of Father's Day
cards, and plenty of wonderful
books that will make great
gifts for these men.
We also have Summer Bridge
books to keep students on
track for the fall. To keep
those youngsters busy during
quiet times, come in and check
out our great selection of
activity and reading books. We
have something to interest
everyone. If you're looking
for games or puzzles to play
on those rainy days, we carry
those too.
Of course we have field
guides, hiking books, and maps
to take with you on your
camping trips. Also all
different genres of books for
your reading pleasure. We're a
one stop shop for your summer
relaxation.

The Last Cowboys: A Pioneer
Family in the New West
by John Branch
|
|
For generations, the Wrights
of southern Utah have raised
cattle and world-champion
saddle-bronc riders―some
call them the most successful
rodeo family in history. Now
Bill and Evelyn Wright,
parents to 13 children and
grandparents to many more,
find themselves struggling to
hang on to the majestic
landscape where they’ve been
running cattle for 150 years
as the West is transformed by
urbanization, battered by
drought, and rearranged by
public-land disputes. Could
rodeo, of all things, be the
answer?
An unforgettable book by one
of the finest reporters of our
time, The Last Cowboys is a
moving tribute to an American
way of life.

Harry
Potter is getting all spruced up
for a new generation of
readers.
This
year is the 20th anniversary
of the American publication of
Harry Potter and the
Sorcerer’s Stone, and to
mark the occasion, Scholastic
has tapped children’s book
author/illustrator Brian
Selznick (The Invention of
Hugo Cabret) to design new
jackets for J.K. Rowling's blockbuster
series.
Selznick
favors an antiquey black-and-white
style, and his Potter jackets
continue that theme. When
placed side-by-side
chronologically, the
seven books
create a single image that
tells Harry’s story, from
his arrival at No. 4 Privet
Drive to the final Battle of
Hogwarts.
