First haircut since pre-Halloween for my Beowulf costume. (Instead of spending money on haircuts, each month i would buy one hat and donate the rest to charities. Highly recommend this practice. Great for folks like me to lazy to do my hair each morn. Lol.)
Also, first time in a fancy haircut place instead of a barber. @arlenjeremy@brindleyhairstudio f*cking rules. I actually look presentable. Thanks buddy.

Welcoming Author Rex Ogle to The Willows!
We were honored to host author Rex Ogle, the writer behind acclaimed books Free Lunch and Four Eyes, among many others! During his visit, Rex spoke about his journey to becoming a writer, the challenges he faced growing up, and how his family and early life continue to influence his work. His messages about perseverance and pursuing what you love remind us all that powerful stories often come from the most personal of places. A BIG Thank You to Rex for a wonderful visit, and we’d love to have you back again soon!

April 25th is Astronomy Day for this spring!
In FRUITCAKE, a stargazing Rex learns about Orion's Belt. The trio of stars that form Orion's Belt are hidden a few times in FRUITCAKE - can you find them?
Astronomy Day happens four times a year, and you can find out what constellations are in the sky each night by using a star finder.
FRUITCAKE - and the other books in the FOUR EYES series - are available to order for your home or school library (link in bio) 📚
Huge thanks to @shelf.awareness for this STARRED review of FRUITCAKE.
