Bookmans on Speedway is offering free story time all summer for its future customers - Tucson's children.
"We're avid about literacy," said Anthony Aldinger, event liaison for the store.
It's also good business to attract parents to the store, he noted. Invariably, "one out of two of those people end up at the register to make a purchase."
