The Circus Ship - Saturday, December 5th, 10:30 a.m.

Chris Van Dusen will be joining us on Saturday, December 5th, at 10:30 a.m. to read and sign his book (which he both wrote and illustrated!)

"When a circus ship runs aground off the coast of Maine, the circus animals must stagger to the shore of a small island. At first the townspeople view them with suspicion, but it's not long before locals and animals are sharing the island in harmony. Loosely based on a true historic event, The Circus Ship is a story about the bonds of friendship and community.

Pat the Husband and Pat the Bride - Saturday, December 5th, 1:00 p.m.

Kate Nelligan will be joining us on Saturday, December 5th, at 1:00 p.m. to sign her books, including her latest, Pat the Bride.

Excerpts from the Books:
From Pat the Bride: "Here comes the bride... and she may be dressed in white, but did she lose enough weight to be able to zip up her dress? Read Pat the Bride and help Judy take care of those pesky little prenuptial details so that she and Paul can live happily ever after!"



From Pat the Husband: "Let's face it ladies... He can't help it. He may parallel park better than you, but can he find the ketchup when it's right in front of his nose? Read Pat the Husband and learn to laugh about and celebrate your husband's pathetic ways. Why be bothered when it's just plain funny?"



The Gingerbread Pirates - Sunday, December 6th, 1:00 p.m.

Matt Tavares will be visiting Kennebooks on Sunday, December 6th, at 1:00 p.m. to read and sign his Children's Book The Gingerbread Pirates.

An unraveling law firm. An unwinnable court case. An unworkable love.
Derek Dover has it all.
