Independent Bookstore Day is coming soon, and the community of booksellers in Northwest Arkansas is getting an early start with a day of book-related sales and programming. Walk the stretch of Arkansas Street between Chestnut and Walnut in Rogers from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 1, and you'll find lots of local booksellers, authors, publishers and makers selling books and book-related items such as journals, book cozies, bookmarks, zines and other literary publications. Two stages will allow booksellers, authors and poets to have readings, make a case for a current favorite read or, in the case of the children's stage, offer up story times.
