To help celebrate 2008, Gather member Tony Eldridge is holding a contest 
With quirky, inspired artwork by Rich Cando, the books "History Dudes: Vikings" and "History Dudes: Ancient Egyptians" brings the past to life in a unique, fun and appealing way. It's packed with amazing facts and hilarious historical anecdotes & the strong visual appeal will engage even the most reluctant reader.
Do you value your "sisters?" We all have them in our lives: women who help us when we need them; who laugh with us when we're happy; and who make our lives so special that we wouldn't be the same without them. Friday Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs is a story about these women and demonstrates the importance of these sisterly bonds.
