Today's Georgia

Opened my big Georgia book and here is today's:  Blue Headed Indian Doll.  
She looked surprised to see me, or maybe that's just the face she always makes. 
It's hard to tell with some dolls. 

You can find your own Georgia here.

awesome author-affiliated bookstores


1.Birchbark Books in Minneapolis, MN. 
Affiliated with author Louise Erdrich, this independent bookstore supports Native artists and writers, has a page on their website titled, "Our Dogs", and stocks books you won't find anywhere else. 
And Erdrich signs each book of hers that you order through this place.  
 Finally, a fantastic birch-built loft for children.  Wheeee!



2. Parnassus Books in Nashville, TN 
Affiliated with author Ann Patchett, this independent bookstore has a secret entrance to their children's section (Parnassus Junior), an incredible listing of author events, and straight up looks like a fun place to spend money.
