Bookstores

Running the Summer Reading Program has been fun, both for myself and the participants. After the success of last year I wondered if this little idea could grow in any way. I'd like to introduce you to this year's sponsor: Bear Pond Books.
 

Bear Pond Books is an independent bookstore in Montpelier, Vermont. It opened over thirty-five years ago in 1973, and has not only survived but thrives at a time when bookstores face great economic challenges. You can read about their adventures on their website.
 

They have generously agreed to be a sponsor for the 2009 SRP. For every 25 people that participate, Bear Pond Books will donate one book to the Children's Literacy Foundation, up to four books! The more people who add a book to the list, the more books that will be donated.
 

If you'd like to support Bear Pond Books, stop by their location at 77 Main Street in Montpelier, or check out their online store!
