Picture Book Author Reading
Let us read to you! This is a family event for both children and adults. Come join us for a magical hour of fun read-alouds and sharing at this gathering of local authors and illustrators each presenting their latest titles. An informal panel discussion with Q&A will follow.
Meet these four Asheville authors:
- Constance Lombardo – Itty Bitty Betty Blob
- Allan Wolf – How to Tantrum Like a Champion: Ten Small Ways to Temper Big Feelings
All books will be available for purchase and signing.
Constance Lombardo is the author of the picture book Itty Bitty Betty Blob illustrated by Micah Player and the author/illustrator of three middle grade novels about Mr. Puffball. Her debut picture book, Everybody Says Meow, was chosen as an Anna Dewdney Read Together Award Honor book, as was Tiny Spoon vs. Little Fork, illustrated by Dan & Jason. She lives with her family and old beagle, Louie, in Asheville, NC. Plus she likes Pictionary.
Allan Wolf is the author of many award-winning books for children and teens, including The Blanket Where Violet Sits, Behold Our Magical Garden, No Buddy Like a Book, The Day the Universe Exploded My Head, and The Blood-Hungry Spleen and Other Poems About Our Parts. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina.
The organizer of this event marked it kid-friendly. 😛
