Business of the Year!

Emporia Main Street has named Town Crier Bookstore their Business of the Year!

"The business was given the award for its outstanding customer service, volunteerism and community involvement, [Director Kayla] Oney said. The award was accepted by manager Becky Smith and assistant manager Marla McClellan." (Emporia Gazette)

Becky in Publisher's Weekly

Publisher's Weekly interviewed our own Becky about the new Young Adult series by Ally Carter. Titles so far include I'd Tell You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You and Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy.

“My daughter is 12 ½ and the perfect age for these books,” says Becky Smith, manager of Town Crier Bookstore in Emporia, Kans. “She likes that Cammie is a strong, smart girl still interested in boys, but not ga-ga over them. She’s a kind of 007 for girls.” (read more...)
