This coming Saturday, August 6, at 11 am, I will be doing a book event in person at Books Are Magic on Smith St. in Cobble Hill. I will be reading and talking about GIGI AND OJIJI, doing a drawing game, handing out some homemade Japanese snacks and activity sheets, and signing books! RSVP HERE. I hope to see you there!
One of our favorite Indie local bookstores is Books Are Magic on Smith St. in Brooklyn. The owners, best-selling author Emma Straub and her husband Michael Fusco-Straub, opened the bookstore in 2017 and it’s been a haven for booklovers ever since. We are thrilled and excited that they are opening a second store in the fall closer to us on Montague St. in Brooklyn Heights!
“I think books are food”, says Emma Straub, best selling author and co-founder of Books Are Magic.
We agree, Emma!
