Children's Book Week
May 2 to 8
“How do you Book?” was the 2022 Children’s Book Week slogan. The thought-provoking theme asks children to think about what they read, where they read, and how they read.
All used picture books were be 25% off. We have a great selection, and this is an economical way to add to your library at home or in the classroom!
Independent Bookstore Day
April 30
Independent Bookstore Day is a one-day celebration that takes place at indie bookstores across the country. We had birthday cake (it’s been seven years since we combined Beagle Books & Bindery and Sister Wolf Books!), exclusive merchandise produced just for the day, some great prizes, a free book with every purchase, AND the new Indie Bookstore map was available! We’re not in this logo, but we are in the map itself!
Jeanne Cooney signed copies of her new book.
Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give, was the Independent Bookstore Day Ambassador!
Indie Bookstores
are our jam!
Spring Retreat

We enjoyed a day outside our normal routine with a lively group of readers! We all read The Fox and I and Pax ahead of time to explore the theme “Uncommon Friendships” through discussing them.

Winter's Children
April 2
Winter’s Children author Ryan Rodgers was in Park Rapids for an event co-sponsored by Beagle and Wolf Books and the local Itascatur Outdoor Activity Club. The event was at the Soaring Eagle Cross Country Ski and Snowshoe Trails warming house. Skiers and history buffs from all over the area swapped stories and enjoyed a pot-luck.
Paper Bag Princess Day
March 5
In The Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch the fiercest dragon in the whole world smashes Princess Elizabeth’s castle, burns all her clothes, and captures her fiancé, Prince Ronald. Elizabeth takes matters into her own hands. With her wits alone and nothing but a paper bag to wear, the princess challenges the dragon to show his strength in the hopes of saving the prince. But is he worth all that trouble?
Jen did a live reading of the book: paper crowns were provided.
Not just Valentine's Day
February 14
Not only was it Valentine’s Day on February 14, it was also Clifford the Big Red Dog’s birthday! We celebrated our favorite larger-than-life canine in a big way this year with lots of fun surprises.
@scholastic and #HappyBirthdayClifford!
