We like to highlight local authors here at Belleville Books.

Ray Bradbury spent his early years in Illinois, going on to author dozens of books and hundreds of short stories.

Today is his birthday and we encourage you to read a piece of his to celebrate! “Farewell Summer” would be a fitting pick.

You can now shop for greeting cards created by Claudia Ruth Burris, of CRB Studios, at Belleville Books!

Burris creates wonderfully colorful paintings, often depicting birds. You can find her work displayed at the Soulard Art Gallery and displayed on greeting cards in the bookshop! Much of her inspiration comes from wildlife sightings along the Mississippi River.

Forest Park celebrates its 150th anniversary this year! “Forest Park: St. Louis’s Gathering Place Since 1876” captures the creation, preservation, and enduring character of the green heart of St. Louis. The sheer ambition behind the park’s original design is still unmatched — flip through these pages and rediscover the history and spirit that make Forest Park so special.

To round out the St. Louis nostalgia, “Meet Me in St. Louis” is showing at the Muny through Thursday, August 13.

Then next Saturday, August 15 at 1 pm, join us in the bookshop for a special presentation and book signing with co‑authors Amanda E. Doyle and Cameron Collins.

“I present to you, the people of the County of St. Louis, your own, this large and beautiful Forest Park for the enjoyment of yourselves, your children, and your children’s children forever…” - Chauncey F. Shultz, St. Louis County judge during Forest Park’s 1876 dedication ceremony.
