News from the Hut: more in-store events, extended hours, and a celebrity sighting!

First things first: in addition to our Halloween costume party this Saturday from 2 to 4 pm, we have two other fun events coming up in the next month!

- Join us on Sunday, November 2, from 3-4 pm for a special preview of Emerson College's production of The Hundred Dresses.

- On Sunday, November 30, from 10 am to 6:30 pm, silhouette artist Marcella Comerford will return to Curious George to do hand-cut silhouette portraits. Call to make a 10-minute appointment.

With the holidays approaching, we'll be extending our normal hours; after Thanksgiving, we'll be open until 8 pm several nights a week. We also have a special offer for your Christmas shopping! Ask your little monkeys to fill out a Curious George wishlist; then receive 10% off all the items on that list with the attached coupon. (While supplies last -- our great books and toys go fast! -- and the promotion ends December 14th. Better get started soon!)

And you'll never guess who was in the store the other day, shopping for a young friend. Jennifer Garner? John Malkovich? Matt Damon? you ask. No, it was none other than Mr. Roger "The Rog" Sutton, editor-in-chief of the Horn Book. There may have been some swooning around the Hut. Now if only that dreamy Mr. Gaiman would stop in...
