We're also very excited about the wooden bookmarks that are thin enough to fit nicely in any book, but sturdy enough to maintain shape over time. ✏️ For the grammar fans, we have some entertainingly sassy pencil sets in two styles.

April is National Poetry Month: Pennies for Poetry
April is National Poetry Month!🖋📖 Just as we did last year, we have one of The Frost Place “Pennies for Poetry” jars out for collections during April.
Pennies for Poetry was launched as a fundraising campaign in 2018 to help keep The Frost Place, and all the wonderful programs they offer, up and running. The Frost Place is the former home of beloved poet Robert Frost, which is now a historic museum, as well as a center for poetry and the arts. The Frost Place, as a nonprofit, relies on donations to keep serving the community.✨
If you would like to contribute, you can stop by while you’re in town and throw some change in the jar. There is also a GoFundMe set up for online donations that you can find here:https://www.gofundme.com/the-frost-place-pennies-for-poetry
To find out more about The Frost Place, what they offer, and what they do, check out their website through the following link: https://frostplace.org/
