Donna Marie Seim, author of Hurricane Mia, to read and sign!
Start: 2:00 pm
End: 3:00 pm
Mia’s entire summer is ruined! First, she learns that her mom is sick. Then, she and her younger brother, Jack, are whisked away to their grandparents’ home on a remote island in the Caribbean. Mia is furious until she meets Neisha, an island girl, who tells her about “The tea that cures everything.” Will Mia be able to find the tea? Will it cure her mom? And will it prove to be her plane ticket back home? Join Mia on an incredible adventure, where she sails the high seas, meets wild donkeys, explores uninhabited islands, and searches for a magical tea. An excerpt from Chapter Six, THE TEA THAT CURES EVERYTHIN' Bush medicine? What's that? Mia wondered if it was like witch doctors or voodoo. “We have a wise woman everybody calls Auntie Cecilia. When a body gets sick, she comes and makes them a tea. My Aunt Teeny was sick somethin’ awful. She got real skinny, and couldn’t eat nothin’. When she try to eat, it jus’ come up again. Auntie Cecilia bring her some of her tea. She say for Aunt Teeny to drink it three times a day. And she got right betta’! Aunt Teeny, she be makin’ 90 years this July!” “Do you think this tea could make my mom feel stronger?” “Oh, yes, ma’am. This be the tea that cures everythin’!” Neisha placed her hands on her hips. “Yes, ma’am!” “I’ve got to get me some of that tea!” Mia lit up. “Where do we find Auntie Cecilia?” "This insightful and uplifting story teaches young readers about friendship, responsibility and the value of the community they live in. Very high praise, indeed!" ~Unicorn Bookstore, Turks and Caicos Islands

Why Shop Indie?

For every $100 you spend at a local indie business, $68 will stay in the community. When you spend that same $100 at a national chain, only $43 stays in your community.

Local businesses carry a wider array of unique products because they buy for their own market: the people in their community. They know you and know what you like and want.

You wouldn’t want your house to look like everyone else’s in the U.S. Why would you want your community to look that way? More diversity in your community enhances its appeal.
