Scott's Book Signing Was a HUGE Success

When Book Revue in downtown Huntington, NY scheduled Scott Starkey for a book signing on Saturday, January 28th at 4:00PM they got a little more than they bargained for... by 4:20PM, EVERY copy of Scott's new book "How to Beat the Bully Without Really Trying" had been sold and the overflow crowd that had come to buy and hear Scott talk had to be gently herded out of the aisles for fear of a fire violation! Congratulations to Scott on a GREAT First Book Signing and a great first book!

The crowd was so large that the planned book signing (after the talk and the reading) had to be moved from the main floor to the upstairs Celebrity Signing section!

How would you like that signed?

People left and right were taking pictures -- after all, Scott was signing his book in the Celebrity Section. Other people, see Tom above, were more than happy to smile for the camera as they waited on line for Scott (Tom, couldn't we just have gotten Scott's signature in the Y locker room?). Margot and Jay were closer to the back of the line (see picture below). Paval was also there for the reading but had to leave before the signing.
