It snowed on Decatur Square this morning.  The snow was brought to Decatur by “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” author Jeff Kinney, who visited Little Shop of Stories this morning.

Scott reports that the Rec was a “madhouse” for Diary of a Wimpy Kid author Jeff Kinney last night.

Sounds like Little Shop did it again!

Dave at Little Shop writes in…

Jeff Kinney, author of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, is coming to Decatur. Little Shop of Stories will be hosting Jeff at the Decatur Rec Center (on Sycamore Street, right next to the Decatur Library) on Wednesday, February 11th, at 4:30. Doors open at 4pm. Diary of a Wimpy Kid, currently #2 on the New York Times best sellers list, is written in the form of a blog / graphic novel. The books, which are enormously creative and fun, are written for kids 8 and up. (By “up,” I mean “UP” — I’m in my 50s and enjoy them.)

Jeff’s books will be available for purchase at the event and always at Little Shop of Stories.

Dave also reports that over 1,000 people showed up to hear author Greg Mortenson a couple weeks back.  Wicked!
