Story time and signing at the Midland Mall Barnes & Noble
I had a terrific time returning to the town I grew up in for a story
time and signing. I saw former neighbors I haven't seen for
years, as well as a few teachers. What a lovely time. My
thanks to Andi and the staff of the B&N store for making me feel so
welcome, and for every one who showed up with their friendly faces and
good wishes. |

Story time at Everybody Reads,
Lansing.
Everybody Reads is unique treasure on Lansing's
Eastside. I was there as part of their 2nd anniversary.
There were several events going on and a wonderful
celebration-feeling to the whole thing. I read my story twice;
signed books, bookmarks, and cootie-catchers; saw lots of friendly
faces; and throughout it all had a great time. Much fun!

School visit to Delta Center Elementary, Grand Ledge
A terrific day! The students, teachers, and staff were very
encouraging during my debut school visit. I'm sure I learned as

everyone who made me feel so welcome, and to all the students for their
kind enthusiasm.

This was a lot of fun. Christine at the Lansing Mall B&N runs

'Twas a pleasure to be a guest reader, and I enjoyed myself
immensely. The kids at the story-time blubbed along with Mr. Fish
beautifully. Thanks, all!
