Greenlight Bookstore A great reader and a great character come together for the last Story Time before Christmas: Touré and the Grinch!

Touré is a noted novelist, cultural and literary critic, and TV personality (Greenlight was honored to have him speak at our launch party in October). He's also a local parent, and a great fan of the work ...of Dr. Seuss, including his essential story of Christmas humbuggery redeemed.

Join Story Time at Greenlight as Touré reads HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS, and a cornucopia of other Seuss favorites. We'll have lots of Seuss classics on hand (they're great gifts for all kinds of folks), and everyone is welcome to enjoy the story of the heart that grew two sizes down in Whoville!

Greenlight Bookstore Dan Zanes is not only a great reader, a Brooklyn local, and a Greenlight Bookstore customer -- he's also a world-famous musician who makes some of the best kids' albums around! His newest album, 76 Trombones, re-imagines great Broadway classics in his own inimitable folk idiom, and is sure to get kids and adults singi...ng.

Dan shares his new album, singalong style, at Greenlight's Story Time on Saturday. We'll have copies of the album available for sale, and a musical treat for all!

The store is beautiful—but it is absolutely overrun with bears! And they are especially aggressive this time of year, as they try to read up for winter.
