Little Bee
By Chris Cleave
 
A husband and wife are vacationing on a beach in Nigeria, they approach two young African sisters who little_bee.gifare being threatened by local police officers.  Fast forward to the United States and the couple's home, as one of the sisters appears, asking for help.  I thought the book was horrible because of the horror it holds, but also sweet, funny and dear.  $24.00
 
People of the Book

Hanna Heath, an Australian rare-book expert, is offered the job of a lifetime: analysis and conservation of the famous Sarajevo Haggadah, which was rescued during the Bosnian war. When Hanna discovers a series of tiny artifacts in the book's ancient binding, she begins to unlock its mysteries. Geraldine Brooks (author of March and Year of Wonders ) has constructed a marvelously intertwined narrative with one strand tied to the contemporary world and the other leading us back into European history, into wars and inquisitions and family tragedies, all of this making up a vividly narrated, powerfully emotional quest.      $15.00  Accompanied by a folding map of the global journey of the Sarajevo Haggadah, as imagined in the book (while supplies last)

 
Meet Deek, our Betta Fish!

Among the many suggestions submitted as potential names for the Inklings Betta Fish, our staff members have voted and selected Deek.

Deek is the nickname of one of the original members (Ivory Watson) of the group The Ink Spots. Isn't that clever?  LuAnn from Othello submitted the winning entry, and she will receive a $20 gift certificate from Inklings.


In a close second, Ray submitted the name Finn, which we loved as well.  In fact, Susan has decided to give that moniker to her own pet Betta.  Ray will receive a $5 gift certificate for his suggestion.


Our thanks to those of you who took the time to submit your clever and thoughtful recommendations!  Come by soon and meet our very own Inkspot, Deek!

Character Word of the Month: Tolerance

Tolerance is being able to accept things that you wish were different.  When you practice tolerance, you have flexibility.  You don't expect others to be just like you.
