Sick as a Dog Storytime
Start: 05/29/2012 10:30 am

Nothing is worse than feeling under the weather, but nothing makes us feel better like the company of a good friend. So today, in honor of spring allergy season, we're going to be reading Boy and Bot and other stories all about friends who go the extra mile to help their sickly pals in a pinch. This morning at 10:30 AM.

Batty for BookKids Storytime
Start: 05/30/2012 10:30 am

We love nothing more than going to see the bats fly out from underneath the Congress Bridge at dusk. So we've decided to have a storytime devoted to our winged, bug eating, nocturnal friends. We’ll read Stellaluna along with other batty tales just for fun.  Plus, we’ll be making our very own bat wings!  This morning at 10:30 AM.

Down on the Farm Storytime!
Start: 06/02/2012 11:30 am

Mooooooo!  Oink!  Nay!  Squeak!  Down on the farm, real outdoor adventures tend to include swatting bugs, mowing hay, milking cows, and drinking plenty of lemonade to cool off. But these stories about farm life make everything seem like a lot more fun and
a lot less work. So today we’ll be reading Punk Farm along with other haybailin’ tales for you to enjoy!  This morning at 11:30 AM.

How Our Events Work

BookPeople is proud to host over 300 events every year. Our events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise stated.

To get a book signed at one of our events, a copy of the event book must be purchased from BookPeople. By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business, but you are also showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople. Think of it this way: you wouldn't bring your own beer to a bar, would you?

For events where we anticipate large crowds, wristbands may be required in order to join the signing line. Occasionally we may also ticket events. In both cases, information as to when wristbands/tickets are available will be found on that event's specific page on our website.
