SUMMARY:MAINE AUTHOR SHANNON BUTLER - DECEMBER 12 @ 5:30 PM
DESCRIPTION:SHANNON BUTLER – DECEMBER 12 AT 5:30 PM \nTo help us celebrate Christmas Prelude in the perfect literary fashion\, Maine Author Shannon Butler will be here at the Graves Library on Thursday\, December 12 at 5:30 pm to sign copies of her book All is Calm: a Maine Christmas Reader. \n \n  \nWhen many people think of Christmas\, they dream of snow-covered pine trees and a small cabin warmed by the wood fire on a cold December day. Since Maine was founded\, people have written stories about the joys of Christmas in the state. In times of hardship and in times of wealth\, Maine and her people have always put the value of Christmas in time shared with family and friends\, connections with the natural world\, rich traditions\, and warm wood stoves. In a collection featuring essays\, stories\, and poetry\, All Is Calm is a look at the lives of Mainers during the holidays from the mid-1800s\, to the Great Depression\, to modern day. Spanning nearly 200 years\, these stories show that while Christmas traditions and trends may be changing\, the warmth\, gratitude\, and humility of the Maine spirit is evergreen. [Islandport Press].  A perfect gift for the holidays or a special treat for yourself! \nThe Library is located at 18 Maine Street\, Kennebunkport.  Please call for more information on this event and other Prelude festivities (967-2778).   Parking is available along Maine Street\, the North Street Fire Station Parking Lot\, and Consolidated School (Route 9). \n
