Book Launch Party     Return to Wake Robin, by Marnie Mamminga has earned a starred review in Publisher's Weekly! While Mamminga's story centers on their family's 1929 cabin on Big Spider Lake, much of the book draws on the swirl of activity at Moody's Camp, a popular resort which opened in 1922.  Short chapters and black and white photographs provide glimpses into the life of the camp's adventures.  A perfect book for anybody who believes in the restorative benefits of letting time stand still for a few months in the Northwoods every year.  To order, click here.   Book Reading and Signing Saturday, May 26, 3:00 pm Redbery Books   Come join in the celebration and share some of your own stories about good times with family and friends around a red and white checkered tablecloth loaded with picnic food!   Marnie O.
