Arundel Books

We’re gearing up for the most joyfully chaotic, book-loving event of the year: Seattle Indie Bookstore Day and the 10-Day Passport Challenge, all kicking off Saturday, April 25!

Here’s what we’ve got in store at Arundel Books:

• A wonderfully silly special-edition tote, free with purchases of $120 (in-store only)
• A free sticker with purchases of $50 (in-store only)
• Two $50 gift cards up for grabs when you sign up for our newsletter (winners announced May 8)
• Extended hours so you can browse just a little longer

And don’t forget, the Passport Challenge runs for a full 10 days, which means more time to explore, collect stamps, and fall in love with bookstores all over the city.

We’re especially excited to welcome beloved Seattle children’s author Kobi Yamada on Saturday, May 2 from 3–4pm for a book signing. Browse Kobi Yamada’s amazing books here.

Come celebrate with us! All giveaways are while supplies last and limit one per customer. To learn more about the Passport Challenge, visit www.SeattleBookstoreDay.com
