Zoey's Story is a collection of actual events in her life as "told" by her. This book is an invitation to the reader to embrace this once-abandoned Black Lab pup that time and again demonstrates her undisciplined and mischievous exuberance. Follow Zoey's education as she attends dog obedience school and therapy dog training. Join her as she romps and plays with her friends, and share her humorous, warm, tender, and occasional sad moments. Share the joy and unconditional love she gives to her family, as well as the smiles, cheer, and comfort she brings to individuals in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, rehabilitation centers, and an alzheimer's center.

Zoey's Story will remind pet lovers that their own precious animals have stories to tell. Listen very carefully, use your imagination, an d you will also share a treasured dialogue with your special pet.

Gear West & The Bookcase welcome Christopher McDougall

 

Born to RunGear West and The Bookcase are pleased to welcome Christopher McDougall, author of the bestselling book Born to Run.

The event will be on Wednesday, September 15 at 6:30 in the evening at Gear West in Long Lake (1786 West Wayzata Boulevard).

McDougall traveled to Mexico's Copper Canyon to discover the running secrets of the Tarahumara Indians. For centuries, the Tarahumara have practiced techniques that allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest. How do they do it? That's exactly what McDougall wanted to know.

Part cultural anthropology mixed with personal memoir and the history of running,Born to Run is "hilariously funny, weird, and nonstop fun to read. Runners can sink their teeth into it," says Bill Rodgers, a four-time winner of the Boston Marathon.

Christopher McDougall is a former war correspondent for the Associated Press and is now a contributing editor for Men's Health. A three-time National Magazine Award finalist, he has written for Esquire, The New York Times Magazine,Outside, Men's Journal, and New York. He does his own running among the Amish farms around his home in rural Pennsylvania. 

Tickets are $5.00, and are available at either Gear West or The Bookcase. 

This is an event that you won't want to miss!
