James Patterson has long been a friend of the independent bookstore.
You may recall that this isn’t the first time that Little Shop of Stories has been blessed with a grant from Mr. Patterson.
Just last year, a grant from Mr. Patterson helped Little Shop retrofit a bus for its book fair business. Well this year, Mr. Patterson is celebrating the holiday season by giving out $250,000 in holiday bonuses of $1,000-$5000 to 87 independent booksellers. And two Little Shop staffers made the list!
Both Kimberly Jones and Sunny Bowles of Little Shop were announced as recipients of 2015 James Patterson Holiday Bonus Program.
Congrats to Kimberly and Sunny! See the full list of recipients HERE.
