Craig Tonjes
OctoberAuthor Signing Event!
📚✍️ Meet the Author: Craig Tonjes ✍️📚
We’re excited to welcome Craig Tonjes to Flutterbuy Books and More on Saturday, October 25th at 1:00 PM for a special book signing event featuring his powerful new memoir: Army Adventures: 1969–1972.
This gripping autobiography takes you inside Tonjes’ real-life experiences in Army aviation during the Vietnam War, told with honesty, clarity, and a conversational style that makes you feel like you’re right there beside him. From basic training and unexpected assignments, to the harrowing crash of a helicopter that changed everything, Craig’s story is both raw and inspiring.
💬 As Tonjes himself says: “Some can’t talk about it, some can’t stop. I fall into the second category—I can’t stop talking about it.”
✨ Don’t miss your chance to:
✔️ Hear directly from the author about his journey
✔️ Get your signed copy of Army Adventures
✔️ Connect with a community of readers, history lovers, and veterans

TRADE IN
Store credit is issued for items you wish to trade with us. Your credit has NO expiration date. We WILL honor credit from “Donna’s Bookstop”. Once you accept the credit for your merchandise, that credit cannot be changed, and the merchandise becomes store property. If you leave your books by our front door, they will receive NO credit and will be considered a donation.
CREDIT
We issue trade credit based on the current demand and resale value of a book or puzzle. Credit is based on the cover value of the book or the sale value of the item (usually 25% but may vary on supply and demand). Puzzles will normally be awarded a $2.00 credit.
Credit may be used to pay for up to 50% of your purchase EXCLUDING new books, rentals, or novelty items. The remainder of the purchase will be paid in cash, personal checks, or credit card (when the option becomes available).
Credit accounts may NOT be “cashed out” at any time.
