Olivia de Haulleville presents and signs her uncle Aldous Huxley’s book Crows of Pearblossoms

Vroman's Bookstore, Sexta-feira, Março 9, 2012 às 6pm

Written in 1944 by Aldous Huxley as a Christmas gift for his niece, Olivia de Haulleville, The crows of pearblossom tells the story of Mr. and Mrs. Crow, who live in a cottonwood tree. The hungry Rattlesnake that lives at the bottom of the tree has a nasty habit of stealing Mrs. Crow's eggs before they can hatch, so Mr. Crow and his wise friend, Old Man Owl, devise a sneaky plan to trick him. Paired with stunning illustrations by Sophie Blackall this funny story of cleverness triumphing over greed is a timeless tale for adults and children alike.

This discussion is free and open to the public. Please keep our general signing guidelines in mind: Those wishing to get books signed will be required to purchase at least one copy of the featured title from Vroman's for every 3 books they bring from home. Save your Vroman's receipt; it will be checked when you enter the signing line.
