We had so much fun representing Virginia at The Library of Congress' National Book Festival!
📚 We hosted Virginia's Great Reads author, Mojgan Ghazirad at the booth for a book signing of The House on Sun Street, which sold out at Politics and Prose Bookstore by the end of the day. 📚
🎉 We met readers and writers from across the country, and shared lots of leftover goodies from the 2024 Festival. 🎉
🍬 And, our team handed out over 2,500 pieces of saltwater taffy from Virginia Beach. What a sweet weekend! 🍬
