Freebie Friday!

On Friday we'll have one title for free. Look below for the title whose "Add to Cart" button has been replaced with a "Get from Critters for Free" button. Enjoy, and be sure to try some other titles too. :)

Here are books and music that members of Critters have put up for sale such that a percent of the proceeds benefits Critters (typically a third to half the price). Readers get good stuff, this is added publicity for members and their work, and helps Critters — a true win-win-win.

Many people don't know you can add ebooks onto their reader devices from other sources, like the Critters Store. Here's a tutorial how to do it. It's easy.

You may wonder why we have music here... it's because one of the Critter members happens to be a genuine, Motown, #1 hit singer. How cool is that? Charlene (of "I've Never Been To Me" fame) is graciously donating a portion of her new songs (which are great) and her children's book. It's not every day you get a coup like that. Thanks, Charlene, and every other Critter member who's participating!

So not only are you buying some really good stuff to read or listen to, you're helping Critters with every purchase.

Enjoy!
— Your Critter Captain
