October Promotion
Banned Book Month
I love reading and wether this passion springs from nature or nurture it has been life long. My daughter also loves reading but I have recently discovered that there have been several classics I read throughout school that she has not read yet. So I wish to expand her education by sharing some of my favorites, along with some that are still on my reading list, with her. And with everything going digital I have had this urge to go back to the security of having more hard copy or paper books to stock my shelves. So where better to start than with those sometimes controversial but beautifully thought-provoking classics and when better than Banned Book Week.
Banned Book Week is October 4th-10th and to honor and reminisce on these classics as well as include you all in my hunt, I have decided to do a Banned Book Month Promotion.
Bring in a decent copy of one of the books on my list during October and earn an extra $10 off your massage this month or 10 xtra points put on your account for future use.
With your help I can restock my shelves with these classics and old favorites as well as donate any duplicate titles to either the library or a school in need of a copy after the month wraps up.
