JEN TOUSEY BOOK EVENT - SUNDAY, NOV. 24th, 3:00-4:00pm @ BLACK DOG BOOKS.
Come meet author, educator, reenactor, historian, mother, JEN TOUSEY - who will be talking about her book, Sarah had a Little Plan. Jen's clever poem/book tells the story of how 'Sarah Josepha Hale tried for 40 years to have the nation come together, set aside differences, and collectively celebrate one day to give thanks. Finally, with the help of President Abraham Lincoln, that dream became a reality, and each November, we now have the national holiday known as Thanksgiving.
Told in the canter of "Mary Had a Little Lamb" (which was written by Sarah Josepha Hale), Sarah had a Little Plan is the story of how a single mother of five in the Civil War era championed a message of unity and peace.'
This event is free. Light refreshments will be served. Please call (317)733-1747 to reserve your copy/copies!

How wonderful

Mat Lagemon delivered an unforgettable performance of Poe’s “The Raven” and Edward Gorey’s “The Wuggly Ump”! Thank you, Mat, for keeping our tradition evermore. And a big thanks to everyone who joined us—such a great turnout that every raven cookie disappeared!

Thank you, Dr. Brad Legge, for sharing your fascinating journey of collecting Jane Austen books and the rich history behind the first printings at Black Dog Books last Sunday. Your passion and insights made the experience truly special for all who attended!
