It’s My Launch Party!

And you’re invited!

7:00 pm

Wellesley Books

82 Central Street, Wellesley, MA

I would love to see you at my party, so if you’re in the area, please come! Ellen and I will be talking about the challenges (and joys) of transforming a beloved children’s classic into a graphic novel for middle-grade readers. We’ll do a DRAMATIC READING from The Lemonade War. There’ll be a fun trivia quiz with prizes, and then some Q&A with the audience. And of course, there’ll be plenty of lemonade and some yummy treats to nibble on. This is a free event but please RSVP.

I’m over-the-moon excited about this book.
Will you please come celebrate with me?
