UPDATE: Post has been updated with a date and time, thanks to Little Shop’s comment below.  Note this is only a book-signing, no presentation.

——————————————————

Since apparently someone (I’m looking at you Mayor Floyd) let the cat of the bag at last night’s city commission meeting, I guess I don’t need to keep this under wraps anymore.

Julie Andrews will be signing from her new children’s book at Little Shop of Stories on May 21st from 2p-4p.

Looks like LSOS is playing in the big leagues now, ever since their big Neil Gaiman “get” last year.

More details as they come in, but the event is limited to only 200 people.

Huge congrats to Little Shop!!

Little Shop of Stories is a Decatur Metro sponsor.

A new AJC story about Decatur High School Junior Michelle Gillig…

What Gillig has done is collect enough toiletries to fill 150 shoe boxes, the largest single donation United Way has ever received since launching its Shoebox Project five years ago.

“I think it’s important to give back to your community and it makes me feel really good to help other people,” Gillig said.

The effort, she said, started last summer when she set her sights on the Girl Scout Gold award and received an e-mail about the ShoeBox Project from a friend. Gillig logged onto the United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta’s Web site for more information. The agency was collecting items for area homeless shelters.
