Way to Display! Chester at Mabel’s Fables

As part of Quillblog’s ongoing commitment to filling our site with ephemera, sundries, and both flotsam and jetsam from around the book world, we are instituting a semi-regular feature entitled Way to Display!, in which we feature striking and eye-catching window displays (or, indeed, interior displays) from bookstores around the country. If you have seen a great display (or have just made one yourself), feel free to send it our way. (Dropping them in our Flickr pool is one way to get the pictures to us, or you can mail them directly to nwhitlock at quillandquire.com)

We kick things off with this fat cat display for Mélanie Watt’s Chester’s Masterpiece in the window of Toronto’s Mabel’s Fables. (Photo courtesy of Kids Can Press)
