Dig In: Sundaes and Books at Fentons (and Breakfast at Daisy's on November 29)
Thursday, November 20, 5:30–8pm
Fentons Creamery
4226 Piedmont Ave, Oakland
The team behind This is Oakland joins Fentons Creamery with a delicious offer that benefits Oakland’s libraries. Meet author Melissa Davis and photographer Kristen Loken, creators of This is Oakland: A Guide to the City’s Most Interesting Places. Pick up a signed copy of the book and create your own famous Fentons sundae (with toppings galore), all for a flat fee of $45.00 (add $6.95 for kids to get in on the sundae creations, too). Twenty-five percent of all proceeds will go to the nonprofit Friends of Oakland Public Library.
The fine print: Additional sundaes may be purchased in addition to the book/sundae combo ($12.95 for adults and $6.95 for kids), but a book must be purchased to partake. Valid only on November 20, and no other discounts may be used.
Saturday November 29, 9–11am
Breakfast with This is Oakland

Includes breakfast treats from Oakland’s Doughnut Dolly and a chance to make snowman ornaments at Daisy’s 11am–4pm. Info: https://www.thisisoaklandbook.com/upcoming-events/
