The first edition hardcover book will be on sale for $15, with $10 from each book sold donated to the library! That means if 100 books are sold, $1000 will be donated to the library to enhance our Summer Reading program. 

Richard will be holding two readings of the book at 10:30 AM and 12:30 PM, as well as autographing each book sold with a special personalized message for each recipient. The books make great Easter gifts!

Orders for pickup at the library are available if you can't make the book signing. Checks can be made out to Tully Free Library for $15 per book. Be sure to tell us the name of the book recipient so Richard can personalize his autograph.
