June 2022 Edition of the  Newsflash

There are two great reasons to visit Books Around the Corner in June, the month which is best known for celebrating Father’s Day.
 
In honor of fathers, and all men, we are offering the following special:
 
  • Half off on all books by male authors! 
 Books make the perfect gift whether it’s for a beloved husband, a nerdy dad, an adventurous son, a quirky brother, or better yet, just for yourself!  So come and find the gift of discovery for all the men in your life. We have books about ships, travel, camping, fishing, grilling, novels about war and crime, biographies, and more!
 
  • All books about animals will also be half price! 
 If you love reading about animals and learning about their care or behavior, now is the time to take advantage of our June mark-down as we have books on a wide variety of animals.  Domestic pet books include those about dogs, cats, and horses and some are by well-known authors such as Monty Roberts, Cesar Millan, and James Herriot.                      If adventure is your style African Wildlife Safaris, Mammals of East Africa, Tarantulas and Other Arachnids
will surely grab and keep your attention.
 
Perhaps birds, fish, and reptiles are your favorite.  If so, we have numerous bird books, guides, and encyclopedias that will surely delight such as The Pictorial Encyclopedia of Birds, The Bird Watcher’s Bible, and Frogs and Toads of North America.  There are endless books to pick from and if you need assistance just ask our knowledgeable volunteers for suggestions or help.  And as a reminder, we are more than books...
we have many music CD’s, DVD’s, audio books, and puzzles... all at giveaway prices.
 
Invest in yourself, your loved ones, and your libraries by shopping at Books Around the Corner!
 
“I have lived a thousand lives and I have loved a thousand loves.  I’ve walked on distant worlds and seen the end of time.  Because I read.”  George R.R. Martin
