In recent years, the Friday following Thanksgiving has become, “Black Friday,” a day for consumers to shake off the tryptophan, wake-up very early and battle crowds in order to save a dollar or two on “stuff.” This recent tradition might have worked for national chains with no Michigan connection, but what works for th...em doesn’t help the Lansing economy. With that said, the EVERYbody Reads bookstore and the Gone Wired Café are going to try something a bit different this year.
Instead of opening early, both the bookstore and café will open five-minutes late on Friday November 27th. We will also close five-minutes earlier than normal. What’s more, instead of dramatic price-slashing to draw people into our businesses, we will actually mark-up all of our prices by ten-percent! At day’s end, we will match the ten-percent and add in a bit more so that 25% of the days receipts will be donated to the Greater Lansing Food Bank. We might not be able to offer computers for $138, but we might just be able to feed a few Lansing families a good healthy meal or two.
EVERYbody Reads is located at 2019 E. Michigan Ave in Lansing. The Gone Wired Café is next door, at 2021 E. Michigan Ave. For more information, please call Scott Harris at (517) 346-9900 or Colleen Davis at (517) 853-0550.
Can't make it in? Telephone and e-mail orders are DEFINITELY included!

A Little Zoo with a BIG Heart . . . One of Michigan's best-kept secrets is tucked away between a railroad and a river near downtown Lansing. Founded in 1920, Potter Park Zoo is the state's oldest accredited zoo, yet today there are still Lansing residents who have never heard of it.
Little Zoo by the Red Cedar: The Stor...y of Potter Park Zoo makes up for this neglect by revealing the true story of how caring people have kept the zoo alive.
Small and largely underfunded, the zoo has survived to become a respected educational and wildlife research center-and a fun place to spend the day!

In an isolated European farm town in 1906, a Pastor known as ‘the rabbit killer’ is preaching that the overrun of rabbits is a parallel for sin and corruption. But when Cora—a farmer’s daughter—befriends a rogue rabbit named Basajaun, she becomes enmeshed in a hierarchy of sentient rabbit armies and ceremony. Soon the ...secret behind the rabbits’ plight is unraveling, and Cora is fighting to save the lives of those she loves—as well as her own.
Michigan resident Rosemary Van Deuren has worked previously as a freelance illustrator, sculptor and painter for magazines, books and galleries. Basajaun is her first novel.

The EVERYbody Reads Book Store in Lansing, is pleased to announce that local author, Lev Raphael, will be doing an Author Signing Wednesday March 18th from 7- 8:30PM at the store.
Raphael’s 19th and just released book My Germany, has received very enthusiastic reviews, including:
"As the New York-born son of eastern Eu...ropean Jews who barely survived the Holocaust, Lev Raphael grew up in a world haunted by secrets and ghosts. Having spent years fleeing from his parents’ past, he decided to confront that past and, in the process, to come to grips with Germany, the country he blamed for the horrors visited on his parents and, indirectly, on himself. My Germany is part travelogue and part detective story, as Raphael sets out to trace what happened to his parents and their families during the war. Above all, it is a wholly enthralling, beautifully written story of healing and forgiveness, in which Raphael not only sheds his hatred and fear of Germany but comes to a deeper, richer understanding of his parents and Jewish heritage—and, above all, of himself."
—Lynne Olson
Author of Troublesome Young Men
The evening’s readings and signing are free and open to the public.

Everybody Dreams, by Michael Stratton, follows marital therapist, Emma Davis, whose dreams have become nightmares. Struggling to understand their meaning, and appreciating the irony of having become the wounded healer, she begins a Dream Group with select clients, all of whom suffer troubling dreamscapes of their own. ...Together, Emma hopes they can all decipher the lies and symbolism of sleep to discover the truth that lies behind the fantasia, and so transform their collective chimeras into the answers they all seek.
Stratton’s Everybody Dreams explores a mysterious and unknown world within us all. Told through masterful prose, author Stratton weaves a complex world populated by fascinating characters, yet in it all manages to find the humanity, compassion, and spirit that unites everyone who struggles with life’s vicissitudes. This is a book that will entertain everyone who loves a well-told story, be it in the “real” world or the world of dreams.
