About Us...
Vivien L. Jennings is the Founder
& President of Rainy Day Books, Inc.
Since
Vivien opened the doors on November 04, 1975,
Rainy Day Books has provided the Greater Kansas
City community with a gathering place, a wellspring
for ideas and creative thought, and an ongoing voice
for
literacy and awareness. Rainy Day Books is
the major independent bookseller in Kansas City,
recognized locally and nationally profiled by The
Kansas City Star and Publishers Weekly
for its community Author
Events, which average 300 plus per year.
Rainy Day Books recommends selections to over 140
book clubs in the area. Vivien and her
romantic partner Roger Doeren support many
local charitable and
civic organizations in raising both funds and
awareness through many of the community Author
Events. Their philosophy is: "Bigger
Isn't Better. Better Is Better. We are
interested not so much in what we have done, but
more in what we still want to do. It is thrilling
to watch people leave our
Events with the knowledge that authors and their
books can expand their awareness, improve their
health, make them laugh, touch their hearts, and
encourage them to achieve a better life in a better
world. This is truly the spirit of the 'Legacy of
Literacy' that we hope to contribute to the
community."
