But, it is more than just a regular book signing. In addition to having my books available for purchase and signed by me . . .
I will have light snacks made from recipes in my book, Fun Through the Seasons: Recipes, Crafts and Fun Facts for Kids.
I will have handouts for the kids - a Pumpkin Surprise coloring page for the young ones and a Pumpkin Surprise word hunt puzzle for the older kids. Pumpkin Surprise is one of the stories in my book.
And, I will have bookmarks kids can finish and take home with them. They can trim them with shaped scissors, punch a hole in the top and thread colorful ribbons through it.
If anyone wants to sit for a spell, I will be reading selected passages from my book and my article from this month's Two-Lane Livin' magazine titled, Colorful Pumpkins. You may never color pumpkins orange again!
Give me a visit if you are in the area. I will be in the children's section of the Ripley Library from 11am till 1pm.
Oh, you are the kind of writer that kids love -- willing to open up their eyes to and ears to your books and also become absorbed in some fun activities. -- barbara
