Ok - For you Michiganders or Michigonians or Michiganites or . . .

You know it's all about the books - and there's cheap books in your area (if you're close to Detroit) today. Go see!

So says Freep.com (Detroit Free Press online). Books for One Dollar!

It is Bookstock, metro Detroit's largest used book and media sale. The sale features hardbacks, paperbacks, best sellers and classics, each selling for $1 to $10. Proceeds from the sale benefit literacy and education projects across southeast Michigan and metropolitan Detroit.

Bookstock has earned more than $350,000 for local literacy and education programs in the past six years.

The sale runs today through May 3 at Livonia's Laurel Park Place at 6 Mile Road, east of I-275 in Livonia. Members of the Detroit Pistons Dance Team Automotion will kick off Bookstock today with an appearance from 8:30-10:30 a.m. Detroit Free Press Columnist Rochelle Riley is an honorary cochair of Bookstock, along with Detroit News columnist Neal Rubin.

The event's presale is from 8:45 until 11:45 a.m. today. Admission for the advance look is $10. Admission is free to the regular sale, which runs from noon-6 p.m. today
and May 3, and 10 a.m.-9 p.m. all other days.

I'll have one in every color please.
