Thank you, Sarafina for showing everyone that the new Adirondack Kids books are autographed. I forgot to mention it in my last post. Sarafina is from NY and knows the Adirondack Kids books well and was thrilled to find this one. She is the first sale and 10% of the sale will go to Ocracats.
The book takes place on Hatteras and the Ocracats organization is featured in the book.

Just in! The Amazing Migration Vacation. It is #20 in the Adirondack Kids series and takes place on Hatteras Island. Ocracoke and Ocracats play a big role. Ten percent of sales will go to the Ocracats organization to help with food, neutering, and other needs. Stop in and take a look when you are on the island. Written by Justin and Gary VanRiper and illustrated by Carol VanRiper.

These beauties were left on the front porch of Boo

These beauties were left on the front porch of Books to be Red a couple of days ago. What a sweet surprise to find as I was setting up for another busy day. Thanks to all of you that take the time to paint and place rocks around to be found.
One of my very favorite books is Everybody Needs a Rock by Bryd Baylor. These beauties certainly fit the bill.

Thank you, Jennifer, Makayla, and Laura for taking the Outer Banks Bookstore tour on Monday. They saw a great post on @buxtonvillagebooks Facebook page and decided to try it. They hit Ducks Cottage in Duck, Island Bookstore in Corolla, @downtownbooksmto (Downtown Books) in Manteo, Buxton Village Books in Buxton, and then jumped on a ferry to hit Books to be Red on Ocracoke. It was great fun talking with you and speaking for all the shops, I say Thank You!

Meet Laura, Aubrey, Rhonda, and Heather. They stop

Meet Laura, Aubrey, Rhonda, and Heather. They stopped in Books to be Red this morning and I fell in love with their shirts. The shirts are perfect to wear to the Ocracoke Fig Festival today and they were great sports and let me capture them for my Insta page. Tell them you saw them here first if you see them making the rounds in Ocracoke today.

Fig pickin', cookin', and eatin' time on Ocracoke.

Fig pickin', cookin', and eatin' time on Ocracoke. The baker's are baking and the tasters (that is me) are happy to start tasting cakes, preserves, and all other manner of figs.
The Ocracoke Fig Festival begins with a fabulous dinner tomorrow night. Chef Vivian Howard will do the honors. Sadly, I am not one of those tasters...
Stop in Books to be Red to find fig books, tea towels, tote bags, and more. I have copies of Deep Run Roots and This Will Make It Taste Good. Both of these are by Vivian Howard. She will be signing the books at the Ocracoke Preservation Society on Friday afternoon.
