This holiday season, Islandport Press is honored to join forces with authors, illustrators, artists, and the Maine Credit Union League in the fight against hunger in Maine. We're auctioning signed copies of 47 wonderful books and special items to raise money for the Credit Union's anti-hunger campaign.

The auction starts Monday and will take place around-the-clock through Friday, Dec. 2. It is being conducted via the Islandport Press Facebook page. A day-by-day schedule, details on auction items, and auction rules are available on our Online Auction to Fight Hunger web page.

Look for signed copies of books by Dahlov Ipcar, Richard Russo, Colin Woodard, Tess Gerritsen, Cathie Pelletier, Gerry Boyle, Brian Vanden Brink, Sarah Thomson, Chris Van Dusen, Dana Moos, Lily King, Susan Hand Shetterly, Cynthia Lord, Fred Field, Carl Little, Paul Doiron, and many more.

We encourage you to bid on these great items, knowing that 100 percent of the money you spend will go directly toward a critical need: providing food for the hungry in Maine.
