Shelf Life: Never Turn the Page Too Soon
Shelf Life: Never Turn the Page Too Soon

Think Disney’s TOY STORY in a bookstore, and you have the tale of Little Book, a ‘tween hero who sets off on a journey to become a bestseller after his frustrated author abandons him on the donation cart of a bookstore at the close of business one night. With only twelve hours until the business reopens and Space-Arrangers (the space keepers of the bookstore) starting to suspect the kid doesn’t belong, Little Book will have to work fast to prove he can rival the best the bookstore has to offer, or risk being shredded into a pile of confetti.
