Come Thursday for the best selection. Friday will be Half-Price Day, and Saturday you can pick out a paper grocery sack full of books for only $3.00.  You can’t beat it.  Proceeds from this sale will go toward funding the Dolly Parton Imagination Library which provides one book each month free of charge to children in Douglas County from birth through age 5.
