Book Signing 3

We had a fabulous time at ReJavanate Coffee Bar. They were even prepared for me! That was so nice. A table was already set up with a table cloth and everything. I put out all of our props. Cardinals sports store was having an outside sale and there were all sorts of things going on.

I had about 20 kids come through and have the book read and interact with our moon memorabilia. What I didn't know was my husband was at the door directing parents out of the heat to cool off with a story that was out of this world! He even got Cardials to announce on the intercom about our story time and signing as well as having it put out on the radio! He is a wonderful PR guy.

I only managed to get a few pictures but we had a great time.

Impromptu Reading

I had an impromptu book reading this afternoon. I handed out some invitations to the books signing this weekend and we are also having a story time. Six little children came to my door to pet the dogs and wanted me to read the book. So we gathered on the swing outside and began reading. They immediately found all the aliens and three of them had to read the book to me.

We had a very interesting conversation about why the moon changes shapes and most of them thought it was aliens squashing the moon. So I already know that on our reading day we will have a small lesson about the waxing and waning of the moon. I need to borrow a telescope and make a trip to the science center before Sat.

It was fun and they want more stories on other days. I guess I'll read other books or make up some new stories. We had a good time.
