Special Announcement - Tuesday night family event!

Tuesday April 22nd, 7:00pm - Storytelling and book signing by local author and illustrator Sudie Rakusin

Come to the General Store Cafe for a children’s reading and book signing by local author and illustrator Sudie Rakusin this Tuesday starting at 7:00pm.

Sudie will be reading from her wonderful children's books in the "Dear Calla Roo... Love Savannah Blue" series.

The Dear Calla Roo…Love, Savannah Blue books came about from letters that Sudie wrote her niece, Calla Ruth. Sudie's sister, Amy, urged Sudie to do something with the letters, and as a result Sudie created her first Calla Roo book. Eventually Sudie expanded the books into a series of t-shirts, stickers, school readings, and workshops.

About Sudie

Sudie Rakusin is an artist and an ecofeminist. Her love and concern for the Earth and Her creatures influences all of her choices and permeates her work.
