Today was Day 1, for the Winnipeg Children's Hospital bookmarket paperback sale, at St. Vital Shopping Centre. This sale runs Oct 18-20, 2007. It looks like Dufresne furniture stores are providing a lot of support, so kudos to them for their community involvement, and to all the volunteers who are so helpful and friendly.
This is not "The BIG" sale for Children's Hospital Bookmarket. That traditionally happens in May, when they pretty well take over the entire mall for a full week. This is a smaller scale, and can be found near London Drugs.
They have GREAT TITLES for GREAT PRICES, and the money goes to a very worthwhile cause. So if you can make it, swing by and pick up a book or two (or more haha)!
Titles I picked up today:
A Fine Balance - Rohinton Mistry
Family Matters - Rohinton Mistry
The Shadow Lines - Amitav Ghosh
Black and Blue - Anna Quindlen
Do They Hear You When You Cry - Fauziya Kassindja
and a Box (Yes a BOX!) of harlequin's for my Mother. Total Cost...about $26
