EVENTS:
THIS FRIDAY, AUGUST 28TH @ 6PM VIA FACEBOOK LIVE: QUARANTINE Q&A WITH
JAMIE NOGUCHI & JEREMY WHITLEY:
'School for Extraterrestrial Girls' is now available and it's been
made by some of our good friends, Jeremy Whitley and Jamie Noguchi!
They've been friends of the store for a long time and Leah will be
leading the discussion with Jeremy and Jamie talking about working
together, making comics for kids (and adults), being dads, and just
catching up!

that anyone who'd like to grab some free books to donate to DC
non-profits like Bread For The City (breadforthecity.org), Casa Ruby
(casaruby.org), So Others Might Eat (https://www.some.org/), Capital
Area Food Bank (https://www.capitalareafoodbank.org/), or HIPS

minimum starting at $5 and no max threshold.
