Saturday Spotlight: Terri Lynn Thompson Signs Story Magic

Join us at The Haunted Book Shop for a local author book signing. September 20, 2025, from 1-3pm, we turn the spotlight on authors Scott Parks and Terri Lynn Thompson! They will sign their latest works while chatting up customers and trying not to be upstaged by the fabulous bookstore cat, Mr. Bingley!

About Scott Park's Po the Penguin: Po Finds Out She's Different Po is a gentle and reserved penguin who has spent her entire life within the confines of the penguin encounter. However, her first venture beyond this familiar setting quickly reveals that she is unlike her peers in many ways. Despite her initial apprehension, Po's unique attributes become her greatest strength as she embarks on encounters with characters from diverse backgrounds, all of whom are somehow impacted by disabilities. Whether it's befriending a deaf penguin, learning from a platypus with Down syndrome, or sharing adventures with a zebra finch with autism, Po learns invaluable lessons in inclusion, acceptance, and kindness.

About Terri Lynn Thompson's Story Magic: Story Magic delves into the tumultuous life of Samantha O’Connor Clark, a woman grappling with personal loss and the unraveling of her daughter’s life. Summoned by the mysterious appearances of a fairy named Sorchae from her grandfather’s tales, Samantha is drawn back into the world of writing, discovering that her fictional creations begin affecting her real life in unexpected ways. This intriguing plot explores themes of resilience, the power of storytelling, and the thin line between reality and imagination.
