Rainy Day in L.A.

If you're in the L.A. area, you're probably a little wet...or hopefully you're curled up with a good book and very dry. We have plenty of good books for you to read like SOMETHIN' PUMPKIN by Scott Allen, illustrated by Jimmy Pickering. Just in time for Halloween! Should give you some great carving ideas and maybe even costume ideas and if nothing else, it's a great story to read to the kids! Enjoy and stay dry!
