Book lovers, get ready because another huge sale is coming your way. The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale is back for its second consecutive year. What can you expect? Two million books that are 50 to 90 percent off. It will be held at the World Trade Center from Feb. 22 to March 4 and will be open for 24 hours. Because we all get that urge to buy a new book at three in the morning. Sorry, Marie Kondo but we’re breaking your 30 book rule next month.
If you made a stop last year, you will notice that there will be more options under young adult fiction, romance, science fiction, crime thriller, business, self-help, architecture, design, cooking, children’s fiction, and activity books.
For those of you who have children who are glued to tablets, find a way to turn it into an educational tool. Augmented reality books for kids will also be available. You will find classic stories like Little Red Riding Hood and Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Founder of Big Bad Wolf Book Sale Jacqueline Ng said, “Children will be able to read, play, and learn through the Little Hippo AR books, which uses cutting-edge AT technology to revolutionize reading for the next generation. These books ‘come to life’ as the characters speak, dance, and sing.”
Honestly, I want to get these books for myself because the use of technology is too cool. Who else will be making their way to this book sale next month?
