BOOK DISPLAYS

 

Spend the Night with Hitchcock

This display features many of Alfred Hitchcock’s films on DVD as well as some biographies about the well-known director.  Also on display are some of Hitchcock’s quotes such as, “The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.” and “I am a typed director.  If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.” 

 

Starlight, Starbright, First Star I See Tonight….

This display celebrates looking up into the night sky and seeing…whatever you can see.  Books about the night sky and constellations can be found here.  See if you can pick out the big dipper next time you look up at the sky at night.  Then find Polaris, Ursa Minor, Hercules, the Strongman, and Sagittarius, the Archer.  Don’t be afraid of the dark, unless you just watched a film by Alfred Hitchcock. 

 

Do It Yourself

From car repair to home improvement, these books can help you figure out how to get that project done with your own two hands.
