FAQ:

Can I bring books from home for Jan Brett to sign?
-Usually the expected attendance at events does not allow for books from home to be signed. However, we are happy to provide as many signed bookplates as you need. -
Can I have multiple copies of Alice in a Winter Wonderland signed at my turn in line?
-Crowd size dictates how many books can be signed per [wrist band]. Often this only allows one book per [wrist band], however, we encourage you to make strategic signing line plans with your friends. Of course, we have signed bookplates for the rest of your purchases. -
How can I get a good spot in the signing line?
-When you pick-up your pre-purchased book at the event, [store] will give you a [wrist band with a number] for the signing line. Numbers will be given out based on the order in which books are picked-up on the day of the event, not in the order which they were ordered. The [Library Host] has crafts/ activities planned to keep families busy while they wait their turn. -
I can’t wait for two hours! What do I do?
-We have beautifully designed signed Jan Brett bookplates for anyone not able to join the line. -
Can I order a book to be signed even if I don’t attend the event?

- Sound MeditationGibson Library, Henderson, NV
#### Join Sound Healing Practitioner Carolina Lamartine Norville for this meditative, therapeutic experience designed to promote healing, relaxation, and mindfulness.
Participants “bathe” in the sounds and vibrations produced by a variety of instruments, including Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, gongs, and chimes. Also known as sound healing or sound baths, the immersive experience can help people to relax and let go of stress or anxiety. The vibrations can encourage a state of deep relaxation and meditation, promoting inner stillness and healing.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring a floor mat, yoga mat (and pillow if desired), or whatever helps you be comfortable lying on the floor. A limited number of yoga mats are available for people who do not have one. Chairs will be available for those who prefer to sit.
Doors will be closed at the start of the meditation session, and no late entry is allowed.
People with certain conditions including schizophrenia, epilepsy, narcolepsy, and pregnancy should not participate in sound baths without consulting their doctor. Some people with tinnitus may experience oversensitivity to the sound vibrations.
The holidays can be stressful, so treat yourself to this opportunity to de-stress.
Free and open to the public. Registration recommended as space is limited.
